DawnM said:I am not the poster you quoted but we moved to Charlotte, NC from Pasadena, CA. We owned a 1,400 sq. ft house there on .16 of an acre. It sold for $600,000. We bought a 3500 sq. ft. house on 2.5 acres here for a little over 1/2 of that.
The hard thing is we feel like with the cost of living there we can never move back unless we want to both work full time and have the kids in full time school and after school care.

I know- we left (not for good- we thought) when DH got transferred overseas with the Navy.
The house that we own here, we wouldn't be able to afford out in the SFV (where we're both from). So we visit every so often to see family.
You did the right thing for your family though-
