[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would move for the family and the weather, but East Bay has its own issues; it’s crazy crazy hot in summer and wildfires are growing risk (poor air quality for weeks).

The salary is a step down, so if happy with townhouses and living more ‘outside’ It’s a good trade off. [/quote]

I would not call 90 degree weather crazy crazy hot. We get that here plus humidity. [/quote]

This summer, for several weeks it was 110 in Contra Costa county, which is likely where OP will end up on his budget with school age kids and a SAHM.  That is crazy hot.  Its not as uncomfortable as here, but A/C is much ubiquitous here and more capable.[/quote]

It was an unusual summer. It was 110 in SF, for goodness sakes, which happens once in a lifetime. It was hardly a typical summer and not something you should base a life decision on. That's like saying we can't move to D.C. because of the polar vortex . Besides, in east bay, ac is everywhere. [/quote]
I am not buying once in a lifetime anymore. I live on the coast with those big fans and it's getting progressively hotter. Am I am saying is that weather is not a positive for those who don't like heat (I love heat and hate cold, it's not an issue for me, but I hear so many complaints).[/quote]
