I've been to San Clemente a few times for the beaches and South OC cars & coffee, which I believe is the largest weekly c&c even in southern California.
It's a nice place, quiet and peaceful. It's the last OC beach town before PCH ends and I5 becomes the only connection to the San Diego area through Camp Pendleton.
Newport is the most commercialized so that's where the malls and most of the entertainment options are. There's quicker access to LA from there as well. Laguna is nice balance between having bars/restaurants while still maintaining a beach vibe. |

I live in a pretty cookie cutter neighborhood currently, HOA, security, the whole deal.

Might even do a nice garage and wash bay or something if I find a good enough deal.
Anyone else considering a move next year sometime?
This isn't even COVID specific, but rather just wanting to get away from the masses in general.
The only issue that my wife has brought up, is schooling. Not sure how the schooling and social scene are going to be in the sticks and really don't want to do any home schooling.

Where in Tampa are you? How long have you been in Florida? I lived in Pinellas for 13 years, moved to Atlanta suburbs a few months ago. Different parts of Florida are completely different worlds from one another. Have you ever visited Deland? |

I've been to all 3 places 5 times or so... Laguna being my favorite - a tad pretentious - then Newport my sis in law lives there, San Clemente is close enough to Newport for my wife to see Sis and me to see my SD friends. Plan is to go test the waters for 1 yr...
