America's 10 Best Undervalued Places to Live: (Percent of
undervaluation, according to IHS Global Insight.)

1. Las Vegas: 41 percent

2. Houston: 37 percent

3. Naples, Fla.: 33 percent

4. Oklahoma City: 29 percent

5. Sarasota, Fla. 28 percent

6. San Francisco: 25 percent

7. Atlanta: 24 percent

8. Omaha: 23 percent

9. College Station-Bryan, Texas: 21 percent

10. San Diego: 21 percent




1. Please. Why would anyone want to live in Las Vegas?

2. Houston. Bad air, bad water, bad schools, lots of flying lead.

3. Naples. Too hot, too many geezers.

4. Oklahoma City. Ever been to Oklahoma? It sucks.

5. Sarasota. Too hot. Geezerville.

6. San Francisco. Sure, but even undervalued, it is still too expensive.
Great city.

7. Atlanta. See Oklahoma.

8. Omaha. Ever been there? See Oklahoma.

9. College-Station. Texas. I wouldn't want to be a long, tall Texan.

10.San Diego. I like it. Almost like it as much as SF, but for different
reasons.


I like Florida, a lot, but for the southern latitudes of Florida, I much
prefer the Atlantic-Carib coast.

The few times I looked at the asking prices of property that interested
us north of San Francisco, I was rendered...breathless. These weren't
"estates," either.

Really beautiful areas.

San Diego is more affordable, if less desirable, because we think the
forests and mountains and hills of northern California really can't be
matched anywhere else in the state.

No translation needed. I prefer the east coast of Florida. So do you,
apparently, since you invariably are cruising to it or along it or from
it. I don't read much here about your extended voyages to Panacea,
Florida; Texas; Mississippi, or Cancun.

I am talking about the parts of Florida I like to visit, not live.
Orlando and south are too hot for my taste, no matter what side of the
state you are on. I prefer northern Florida for living...a bit more
moderate, climate wise, some seasonality, some decent flora, and a
couple of hills here and there. Living on a rat-filled manmade
canal...well, if I wanted that, I'd move to Venice, Italy.

SD is just as expensive as here in the places I want to live. North of SF,
except for the Marin Peninsula is more affordable than the areas in SF and
the East Bay where I reside.

Well, that's interesting. My favorite area...less expensive!

The value of an item is established by what someone will pay you for it
now. What you believe its worth is, is just fantasy.

A house isn't worth a dime unless you can afford the home, utilties,
property taxes, crap taxes and the like. And of course clean water.

But if the US sends me a green card, I see 2 or 3 places I would move to.

Leaves more money for a boat!

But seriously, it at least takes out the pumped up land prices. My guess is
that it will stay this way for some time. Oh, some areas will bounce back,
but others will fall further.
