I'ld move back there in a second... what i don't miss is the Government of the State of California.

Hawthorne down by Redondo isn't bad, east of HB and MB isn't so great. El Segundo might fit into his price range, but that's close to LAX.. maybe up in brentwood would be good.

I didn't like MDR too much, it's a very pretty area, but the marina just dominates it and there really arent any good beaches.... if i had a boat i'ld have loved it, but i only had my kawasaki 1100STX out there with me and it took like 20 minutes just to get out of the marina! that was THE longest no wake zone i've ever been in .
