Ah, that's a different problem. Pretty much one of the three furthest left towns in the US, or at least used to be. Not great for families, and rather expensive. A company here makes a $9,000 mountain bike, and the google says the average apartment rent is $3,400. Add a thousand or so for nice new apartments. Being retired and anti-social helps. Liking to live somewhat outside of reality also helps.

I'm not broke, but I dont think I could afford to live in Santa Cruz. Thats another problem with this country. It can cost a lot of money to move away from the niggers. Sure there are cheaper towns that are nigger free, but they come with other problems, who wants to live in Nebraska?

It's all tradeoffs. The weather extremes I went through as a kid were enough that I don't want to go back. And the brain dead lefties were more comical when I first moved here. I paid my $5 in the early 80s to see the first talk on the west coast by the Breatharian guy - street nigger/hustler from NYC - and the room full of hippies there with me were eating it all up, in a manner of speaking. That's when I realized how crazy this place was.

You could rent a 4000 square foot house, on land, for $2500 back then. Or buy for a fraction of todays price. Everything changed after the '89 quake destroyed the downtown. Money came in. The real hippies left. Development began replacing the cottages on 5 acres with '37 townhomes'. School girls no longer rode their horses on the rural lanes, because they all turned into busy, multi-lane thoroughfares.

It was a remarkable event to see a negro back then. Now, they're up around 2%. It's definitely going downhill, but is there any alternative that isn't worse? I'm not moving to Nebraska.
