Offshoot question. Would it be affordable to get an acre and a little cabin in the Santa Cruz mountains? What kind of commute would that be to the tech hub?
It looks close on a map and seems like a lot of open land.
- SR2Z 3y agoThe land is protected from development, IIRC.
- welder 3y agoOnly the preserve, but the Santa Cruz mountains have tons of people living there. The downside of Santa Cruz mountains is there's only one road in/out and it's often blocked from traffic, car crash, fallen trees, rain. Not to mention yearly wildfires.
- welder 3y agoSounds nice until the fire claims your house.
- latchkey 3y agoThat area is really beautiful. ~1 hour commute each way. Doesn't sound like much until you start to add it up and factor in things like wear and tear and gas. Driving 17 highway is a lot of fun and beautiful, but it is like playing Russian roulette with accidents.
