I lived in Turtle Ridge for two years, before moving out to a private rental some time in 2005-6. On the surface, the complex looked pretty good when I was there. But my impression was that it would not wear well because of cheap construction. I was the first tenant in a newly-constructed...

Welcome! You didn't mention employment, so can we assume you're planning to win the MegaMillions lottery? (It's more than $130 million cash value tonight.) If climate was my ONLY concern, I would pick either Northern California, Santa Barbara, or San Diego. The farther south, the closer...
