angellicaz Posted April 19, 2012 Author Share Posted April 19, 2012 Ooh well that's good then.. :) Why isn't Orange County good? Yeahh I was looking at like a population thing and it seemed like hardly anyone lives in a lot of places, it was like "1-10 people per square mile" I was like whaaat! But then Cali has a huge population so I guess most people live in the big cities like LA and stuff.. Is Oakland a bad area? Thanks for the info by the way :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacky Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Orange County not that good? I would love to hear your reasoning on this... *confused* Like I said, there's bad parts everywhere, but I think OC is pretty good. IE isn't half bad either, I'm having a blast here. :) I can go to SD in 1 1/2 hour, LA in 50 minutes, LV is only 4 hours drive, beach is only 40 minutes, skiing in an hour, I haven't seen any crime yet in 2 1/2 years... Nothing to complain! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moni_rawr Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 The earthquakes are not too bad, and there is crime everywhere...especially big cities. I would suggest Washington (the state), although it does get quite chilly during the winter. If you're looking for a place that's warm for most of the year, Florida/Georgia would be your best bet. Looking for a hot place? Arizona. It's only April and we're hitting the high 90's...it went from semi-chilly to hot in less than a week. You should probably also factor in the career you would be most interested in along with price range and all of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raysmama Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 I was just researching places in california to move because my family and i are considering new scenery. I actually saw that several of the smaller towns in california made the top ten safest cities, granted places like Miami and L.A. will always be for the rougher crowd but as far as safety goes there are a few places out there that aren't that bad.

There's actually a place right outside of LA that is really nice, but the housing is quite expensive. My sister and her family had a 1-bedroom apartment close to Manhattan Beach that was $1500 a month, not including utilities. Now they're in Orange County paying around the same I think for a townhome (2-bedrooms). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really, you are better off where you are. England (and Europe in general) is so beautiful, and there is so much to learn about everything there. And the warm, damp weather is wonderful. I live currently in this dump known as Massachusetts, it's terrible. Summer is too hot, winter is too cold, it smells of grease and car exhaust and it's so freaking UGLY. Nothing to see except, buildings, cars and the occasional park where you can still see all the highways.Once I can get a student Visa, off to Europe I go. I'll never miss America.
