Yup. The whole central valley is a hotbed of crime. You want something nice, move to Monterey. . . or how maybe the Sonoma. Or you could try something like Watsonville?? I dunno. . . the best bet is just to get outta there. That's what I did. I left the country. I tired of complaining. I got tired of stupid people ranting about politics and not knowing what they were talking about (they cheer like they cheer for sports teams). The people have officially lost track of education and the major source of news and information are things like Letterman and The Daily Show. There are nice areas still, but you have be a millionaire to live there. And I'm sorry, I just don't see myself spending $600,000 for a POS home in a gang infested neighborhood. $1M+? Forget it. There was a time when older generations paid off a home in 10 years. That time is gone. Yeah you could move in with some sheep out in the middle of nowhere, but that's not going to happen.
In Thailand, if you have good skills, you can make good money. And you can still buy a home for less than $50,000. . . and it'd be a high floor high rise luxury condo. Meals seldom cost over $2, and I can go out all night long and pay for my friends for less than $30. An hour long cab ride costs $4, no joke. And I net more money in my pocket at the end of the month than I ever did in the States.
