Living along the southwest coast can be a dream life for sure.
Beaches, sunshine and the ability to head to the mountains or the shore in the same day is really amazing.
We have lived here all of our lives and even though life is great most of the time there are some things that we deal with that people around the country may not realize. Did you know that we never even flinch for the most part when we have tremors. Yes I mean tremors like the kind that come with seismic activity. Earthquakes and tremors are a normal way of life for us and feeling the earth shake has nothing to do with emotional connections. One thing that we learned early on was that our HVAC system had to have special connections when it came to our ductwork. We can not have the conventional ductwork because our has to be flexible in order to stay in place during the shaking. If we did not use that type of product we would constantly have to bring in repair people to fix the cracks and disconnects. We even have our HVAC unit is sitting on a flexible pad to prevent it from getting damaged during the rumbling. These things are a small inconvenience for living is a nearly perfect environment. The freedom to live life in the outdoors year round and make the most of just about every day is so worth it. If you ever have the opportunity to live in an area like this you should definitely consider it. You should also make sure that your home and all the appliances are set up and built to withstand what comes with it.
