You must be referring to the ridiculous appreciation in
housing prices which, so far, hasn't stopped. In other
words, an opportunity to make money on the place in which
you live. True, you probably aren't going to buy in
San Francisco, which is why I said the Bay Area. There's
a lot going on in the North Bay (where I live).

That's quite localized. Employment continues to
recover quite well, and that's not just burger-flipping
jobs. Crime, well, sure, there are neighborhoods to avoid.

Surely you jest. Muggy? It's 70F and 35% RH outside
right now. That's hardly muggy.

I suppose you can find those in The City if you're
into that. But there's a lot more to the Bay Area than
San Francisco.

Well, I dunno. What's funny to you? I'm not sure you
know the Bay Area very well. Wine country, rugged beaches,
redwood forests, ag fields, mountain vistas, primitive
camping, power-boating, bicycling, the arts, stripper
clubs. Q, too.
