Yes and no. I live in Sac now, used to live in the foothills on acreage (and miss it dearly). When people ask me how my drive is, I can only respond that sometimes it’s 1.5 hours and sometimes it’s 4 hours.

The places are great, but the times...if you want to get somewhere when other people do, too, you can add an hour to your drive time. (7a show yesterday, left the house at 430...barely made it. Leave at 4, though, and I’m there at 545).

Prices are also rapidly on the rise. Just last week my wife was saying she didn’t think we could ever get $1700 a month rent for our 1k’ sq 2/1, and Sunday our neighbor’s house, same house, went up for $1850. The good (better?) deals are drying up fast as people get priced out of the Bay Area.
