    I live in the suburbs, and not even a "cool" suburb at that. But I gave up being cool when I turned 30.

    Having a comfortable house with space and a front and backyard are big positives. It's also dead quiet at night, which is awesome.

    I used to live by the beach and I miss it every day. If I had the money I'd buy a house in my old neighborhood, but that's either a long way off or it'll never happen at all.

    Fortunately San Diego is a pretty navigable city. I can still get to my old 'hood by the beach in 25 minutes with no traffic, and to downtown in a little over 10 minutes with no traffic. And when there is traffic it's not as bad as LA.

    I also work from home and don't get out a lot, so having a full house to pace around in is good. Much better than a small apartment in a cool neighborhood.
