I guess you are not in California.

  Heck no! I don't make enough money to live there in a way I would enjoy.

    If you like camping you'll enjoy San Francisco

      Not since the 8th, though.

        Is it because the Berkeley dudes ain't that hippy any more?

        Oh cool, how can I find the sf results? Not interested enough to google it thanks for the public service!

  Interestingly California has a homestead exemption but it's a joke (capped at $70).

    Oakland has a $7000 homestead exception. It actually just takes $7000 off the "value" of the property for taxation purposes. https://www.acgov.org/assessor/decreasetax/exemptions/homeowner-exemption.htm https://www.acgov.org/assessor/decreasetax/exemptions/homeow...

      Right, I live in Oakland. This is a state exemption. In other parts of the state it may be meaningful, but if you (like me) bought property in the Bay Area in the current millennium then it's insignificant.
