I mean this is all what I’m considering. I hate working day in and day out in the Bay Area. I grew up in the Santa Cruz mountains in the forest and now I commute through an asphalt jungle to a concrete building where I’m pampered every day like a fragile snowflake. I’m constantly working to figure out how I could afford a home in the outskirts of this region. I’ve already moved from an Audi to a Honda although it’s kind of an expensive Honda, so I’m considering switching to something cheaper. And I’m dreaming of finding land in pescadero.

So to answer your question... some of us?

I did exactly this. I gave up my $3500 apartment in SF and moved to the central valley. People in SF and the Bay shit all over the central valley, but I've never been happier.
