You had me until the high-speed train. I remember my time in SF fondly but it's got some real warts.
New Hampshire has all of that. As a bonus, you can actually buy a house and people don't defecate on the sidewalk
CA != SF && LA. New Hampshire is pretty far north, so good luck if you have seasonal effective disorder.
They also have poop on the sidewalk and typhus. The one place where you can work for the likes of Google and Facebook, make near six figures and still have to live in your car.
