The only reason I am still here is because of my daughter,grandchildren, elderly parent in a home and sister & brother-in-law that still need me here. Otherwise I would be gone. This states voting majority keeps taking from people who work or have worked all there lives and give to others who don't want to put any effort to better their situation. I have friends that have new neighbors who just moved in. They blatantly say why should I work. I am getting rent payed, food, electric, medical. Not to mention the state teaches them to game the system better for every free handout. But then I see the same system tell others that have lived here all their lives and payed into the system there is no help for them with rent when needed. They have the wrong genetics. Politian's will keep giving freebies for votes to keep their positions. The tipping point has already passed. Just like California. People are leaving who can. Look at the population shift out of Ct.

Headed out next summer. Vermont is calling us, at least for the summers. We'll figure out where to spend a few months each winter once we're out of CT.

I work to live, not live to work.

Mitch, there is something wrong with your map...No way could Cali be #12..

I'm happy with my SC choice, close enough to the water but far enough away to avoid the tourists on Grand Strand....I took a 20 minute ride to Murrels inlet yesterday...every parking lot was filled to capacity...lol

Ca. is number 12 due to its very complicated way of dealing with taxes. Proposition 13 limited the tax increases allowed for real estate, both private and commercial, as long as the property was not sold to a new owner. Think in terms of NYC rent controlled apartments. This is Ca. real estate tax control and designed to protect the elderly and other long time Ca. residents. From a google search --
"A large contributor to Proposition 13 was the sentiment that older Californians should not be priced out of their homes through high taxes.[4] The proposition has been called the "third rail" (meaning "untouchable subject") of California politics, and it is not popular politically for lawmakers to attempt to change it.[5]"
