[QUOTE="CrazyinVA, post: 562146, member: 1157"] When I first moved here after growing up in the Difficult Child area, it was quite a culture shock. I grew to love it pretty quickly, though. Especially: The ocean, the mountains, and Difficult Child are all within a 1 to 2 hour drive. Benefits of a larger city (culture, diversity, etc.) without the traffic or expense. 15-20 minute commute to work Fantastic restaurants Vibrant art community Great music scene Great support for local businesses High availability of fresh locally-grown food, farmers markets everywhere Festivals! (food, music, art, culture, outdoor adventure). Most have no entrance fees. Seems like there's a festival of some kind every other week here. This is one festival-happy city. A river running through the city with a great park system featuring hiking/biking trails, etc. History everywhere you look, beautiful architecture [/QUOTE]
