I think it's best to do when it's not out necessity. That generally helps to keep it from being a necessity and buffers it when it might be. We lived in Orange County for the better part of four years nearly thirty years ago and it was stupid expensive then. I know it's only gone up from there. All the people moving elsewhere as businesses seek better financial climates, I'm not sure who's going to be left. Probably won't get that bad, but I'm afraid it's only going to get worse as far as cost of living goes.
