Re: California; More Leaving, Less Coming

I have seen the real estate market here in California drop 25% - 30% back from 1989 - 1994. So it's possible.

A neighbor of ours has had their house up for sale since June. They started with an asking of about $820K, now they are down to asking $685K. It may seem the original asking was too high, but several (comparable) homes within a mile sold for above $900K in the previous 12 Months.

I don't think we will ever see a reduction in traffic. My orbit (the distance I am comfortable driving from my home) has been getting smaller and smaller over the past 10 years. There was a time when I didn't think twice about driving to Long Beach for cocktails with friends, now the criteria is it must be a funeral or a wedding.

Perhaps I am just getting old?
