Fortunately most can't afford the move.

KS is by no means my favorite place in the world, but you couldn't pay me to move to CA. Sure, there's lots of stuff to do, but what if you don't have time to do it? A buddy of mine lives in Rancho Santa Margarita, that was his exact comment. Awesome weather and lots of stuff to do, but between work and hours sitting in traffic, there's just no time. Add in other variables such as a family, and I'd guess that the life of most CA residents looks largely like mine, just more expensive.

For a single person it makes more sense, because you can better take advantage of the available activities, and hot women at the beach. But I struggle to understand why anyone would want to raise their family in CA. Different priorities I suppose, to each his own.
