The only issue we found with living in SV, was the public schools are lacking. Fortunately for us I was still in the Army Reserve and was able to get our daughter enrolled in the DoD school at Fort Huachuca. If I had to do it over again, I wouldn't mind it, SV was very pretty and you can live pretty well on our salary there.
