I've often wondered the same. My wife has a cousin living just outside of Napa. Has about five acres, three of which are in grapes. He makes an excellent wine and they live in a beautiful, but not extravagant house. A wonderful couple that have built a terrific life. I had a little discussion with him about California. He is well aware of all its drawbacks, but says where else could he live the life he so enjoys with the wonderful climate and scenery that awaits him every day.Any reason other than the weather that people live in California? (Only half kidding!)
