Default Lake County/Clear Lake Area?

Does anyone live in or have information of the towns around Clear Lake in Northern California? It looks like such a beautiful place to live, I'm wondering how affordable it is to live there, and any pros or cons you know of.

Hi TribalCat,

Here is another thread on this topic:
Clearlake
See my post; it's as accurate a description as I could give. I grew up in the neighboring county and know those parts pretty well.

Thanks for the link, it was really helpful. All of the touristy websites show the best parts of the town around the lake, but it's nice to get a more balanced feel for it from other posters. I was getting really excited about the area, then came across a website talking about the mercury leeching into the water, etc. That concerns me. It's definitely something to think about.

Lake County is very affordable right now. 4 and 5 bedroom houses going for $230,000 Due to foreclosures.

Nice areas, Middletown is cute, Hidden Valley Lake is nice, Kelsyville seems nice too. Good luck to you.

I wouldn't move to lake county. It is the most economically depressed place to live. My biggest regret in life is moving here. I'm stuck and can't get out now. It sux.
