I don't own property here and don't plan to. Just an EV. I'm on the "Space Coast," surrounded by SpaceX, Blue Origin, Northrop, et al., engineers and exciting conversations every time I go out. Elon frequents a local dive bar downtown. Lex fridman was here a few weeks back. We have several startup hubs, and there is an enormous population of deep hardware and material science expertise not as prevalent in the SF Bay area. For an aerospace nerd like me (where I transitioned my career to 4 years ago), I'm living the dream and have lunch on the beach, and lease a 2,200 square foot industrial lab where I can do every wild experiment I every dreamed of for less than the cost of a studio apt in Tenderloin. I have my own mill, lathe, industrial 3d printer, etc etc. Back in SF, I had a motorcycle and a soldering iron under my bed. Look, there are pros and cons to SF/NYC/etc and places like Florida. This life here fits me well. If city life is for you, so be it! We're all unique in our life experiences, interests, etc. I just _personally_ don't want another F*&^ing $500 parking ticket because I was changing my motorcycle oil for 20 mins with one tire a hair over into the sidewalk.
