Nope !!! I used to go there twice a week as a Truck driver so I probably have a worse prospective than a person would have if they went as a tourist we usually see the worst side of cities/towns and the folks that live there. as I typed this I got to thinking you might enjoy it better than where you now live it is a lot slower pace, good riding in the area, scenic roads, quiet lifestyle, It is just not my area of choice. If you move there you will definitely miss the L.A. weather. Good luck making your decision I know how hard it is to change. After 25 years of being self employed am going to work for the county next month am moving to the Kansas City area (if I don't change my mind) Making this decision has been a real roller coaster I think I remember you saying something about medical services in a previous post, If you think this is needed check it out, this is the major reason I chose to move to a metro area
