I was looking at property in Prescott/Sedona recently and when I asked the real estate agent what the tax base was, he didn't even know. That's the first thing I check on CA properties, as it can easily raise your monthly payment up to 2k a month. So, he didn't know and had to figure it out. It was aboutt 1/10th of what the same tax base is in OC - and if you take what you GET for the dollar, probably 1/25th as expensive. And the roads are in MUCH better condition. And the state isn't bankrupt. And the air is clean. And the real estate is 1/3. And on and on.....

CA blows....
