California is insanely expensive.....10% state income tax and EVERYTHING is priced sky high. Not even all that fun either. I lived there and know.
LAS is a great bet! (no pun intended) For all but 3 months out of the year the weather is awesome. Great places to ride, run, and hike. Even during the summer months you can get a ride/run in if you will do it late or early in the day. EVERYTHING you can imagine wanting is available. The Strip is somewhere where people go to work or visit occasionally if you live in Las Vegas. The city has its own vibe and is a great place to live. I would recommend looking at Summerlin/Henderson areas. Especially if you like getting outdoors...those two places have great access.
Oh...did I mention no state income tax?
You should give LAS a second look.....and look away from the Strip.

From: training to be FO on 737 SWA
I just applied to Southwest airline and later got a called saying that my application has been accepted. Right now I am in basic training. I am a former express jet airlines captain but we really never had any fun bases. So I was wondering what bases are the best. I have heard many stories from Chicago Midway base but I think they will probably base me out of Houston unsure yet. If I was based out of Houston is that base better or worse than Chicago Midway and Las Vegas?

You should go back to playing kickball with the other kids on your block.
