Depends on where you want to live. I was in Indiana and they got some 
huge houses and a couple of acres for 250K. If you don't have to live in 
Silicon Valley, I say get the hell out. Also, this place has cancer 
thanks to the semiconductor industry and their chemicals. Everyone of my 
neighbors has had one form of cancer or another. Low crime rate for a big 
city though.
