cellboyI must say that my family and I have moved quite a bit. A good thing, for I have always found that "every city" has it's good and bad points. So when someone says, oh! That city. Yuk! I say, that there must be some good points and areas in every town (well almost).
In all, I have lived in 12 homes; 8 cities.
Here they are:
Sherbrooke Quebec; My parents in the 50's I would say were "Home Flippers" Bought and sold. I lived in 4 homes
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sherbrooke,_Quebec
Menlo Park Califiornia: In the 60's 70's this was sort of a middle class to upper middle class town. Big points is that it was next door to Stanford Univeristy, and Palo Alto. The birth of Silicon Valley began in this town and Stanford U. Later with the Silicon Valley boom, this town and the real estate prices just boomed. My parents sold before that time. Too bad. I lived in 1 home. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Menlo_Park,_California.
San Jose, California: My parents sold and moved to a retirement community (Sun City like); They fliped two houses. I lived in 2 homes. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_Jose,_California
Irvine and Newport Beach: I went to college at UC Irvine. Rented a room in Irvine for a year. Then my frat bro's and I rented a 4 bedroom house on Balboa Island ($525/month!). The beach life. OY! My GPA suffered. I lived in 2 homes.

Redwood City, California: After college, I ended up back on the SF peninsula, in RC for over 10 years. I lived in 1 home. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redwood_City,_California
Pacifica, California: On the coast just 15 minutes from San Francisco. Mavericks Beach, famous for surfing, is just down the road. This user pic was the view from my apt. 1 home. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacifica,_California
South San Francisco, California: Just 15 minutes south of SF, this town famous for Genentech, Elan and others. 1 home http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_San_Francisco,_California
