Chattanooga ain't exactly southern California, in terms of real estate values. Also, that one is kinda ugly, the one in TFA is lovely. The curves, the windows, the terrain, the interior, everything is gorgeous.

California is an ocean of poverty dotted with islands of wealth.

Idyllwild, CA is s one hour drive to San Diego and Palm Springs and a two hour drive to LA.
