Can you elaborate? No clue what this is referring to.


Visit and you'll see. Super liberal policies of the west coast are creating Portland like disaster zones of homeless camps everywhere.


Ok I visit San diego a couple times a year including last month and I don’t see it there. No one would ever call San Diego super liberal either.


Thousands of illegal aliens were dumped into SD neighborhoods recently.
It was reported in the news including locally there.


SD has lots of beaches, including some that are private. You can avoid homeless people depending on your budget.

That sounds like Rodanthe, North Carolina.

I've also been to Turks & Caicos and st kitts, and the flights weren't crazy long.


Key West is definitely in a bad location for hurricanes.
It doesn’t have beaches that are soft sand.

Puerto Rico, non stop flights. A lot of people own condos and fly for the weekend from the east coast.

Quite unlike NJ shore. The beaches like Flying Point Beach in Southampton is resident only parking and it is just the beach, lifeguard, bathroom, food truck sometimes. All the night life, restaurants, clubs etc are in town.

Easy to get from. I usually drive off peak, but sometimes Acela to Cannonball train or Jitney out of Penn.

My rich friend used to fly out of BWI to McCarther airport on Long Island. Very very short flight. Avoids all the traffic.

A house 2-5 miles from the ocean is not a beach house.


You don’t understand it. No one wants to live by beach in Hamptons it sucks. I rented out there 13 summers. One summer we were by the beach. It was wicked cold at night, no stores, just a handful happy hour places, zero night life. I had to drive 15-30 minutes each way for cup of coffee, dinner, go to good bar, go to movie or anything. Plus driving to get people at train. And no street parking in dune road.

Best part I lived in Southhampton by Main Street walking distance train to NYC. Great restaurants and shopping.

And down by beach, flood insurance, hurricanes, no basements.

I get all that on the Jersey Shore four blocks from the ocean. With a basement and no required flood insurance.

Digressing a bit--I was checking out beach properties in Nantucket. On the south-west side, one house listed for $3.5 milion.
