One big reason for me to move from the East Coast to Az -- my last year in NC we got popped 3 times, though none too badly, with hurricanes, and that was about par for the course.
We have no earthquakes, no tornadoes, no hurricanes, no mosquitoes and God knows no humidity in Phoenix
As soon as the 'big one' splits Cali off and its a floating island, we'll have beachfront property here too, beat that!
