We left over 6 beautiful wooded acres on a non-through street outside of Houston, and moved to a house on .3 acres in the Bay Area.

We enjoy our yard here so much because it isn't miserable to be outside in it. The kids are climbing trees and collecting acorns right now while I sit on the deck.

The cost of living issue adjustment no joke. But if you have the income to live here, this native Texan can not see any reason to stay in Houston.

The heat index was a humid 104 degrees today. Needless to say, we didn't do anything "outdoorsy". Glad you're enjoying yourself out there! :-)

Glad to hear that you're liking the Bay Area, and making the financials work for you (which is the BIGGEST hurdle).
