You call incessant rain mild? :-)

The small town aspect of it was why I finally moved away.  I woke 
up one morning and realized that I needed to be in a big city, so I
sold my condo, quit my job, and moved to San Francisco.  I've never
regretted it for a moment.

But yeah, it was nice to be able to kick out of my office and be in
the coast range ten minutes later.

It is.  And it seems like gouging, but I don't think it is.  Real
estate in upscale areas is expensive, and that extra cost gets passed
along to the consumer (as well it should.)
