California, is a beautiful state, no doubt. But if I were to relocate to the Southwest, AZ or NV is where I'd go. CA taxes and astronomical cost of property are the biggest factors.
I just can't get excited about the landscape in Arizona. Yeah, all my family is here but it is just so ugly. I lived in California for three years and loved the green grass and trees. Here it is just burned dirt, rocks and shrubs, just like Nevada.
