Right now, i live in San antonio,TX, the cost of living is pretty cheap (i rent an apartment at $600/month, including internet, electricity, water; and spend about $600 on food, gas..etc)
Do you think $1,500(which is my estimated take-home-money) enough to cover the general expense in Phoenix?
Do you still CFI at the school across street??
I've never been to California for an extended period of time, but I would say I cancelled less than 10 days in the year I worked there. The weather in Phoenix is clear, calm, and warm 95% of the time. The summer is tough since it's so hot and you'll be done flying by noon.
I would plan on paying a bit more in Phoenix for rent and utilites than you do now. $1500 will cover your expenses as long as you don't have an expensive car payment, big bar bills, or any other big vices.
I quit working there in May when I got hired on at an airline.
