Worsening highway congestion and spiking house prices has many people ready to head out of 'livable' San Diego County, CA.
"Weary from traffic congestion and wary of ever-increasing housing prices, a majority of respondents in a recent survey of San Diego County residents say they have considered packing up and moving away... 'I had always hoped we could figure out a way to control traffic congestion and housing affordability, but every area of the country seems to reach a point where the quality of life regresses and people begin to leave,' he said. 'I'm afraid the same thing could happen here.' "
