Ok some general things I know about the place.
- Hot/dry in summer, cold and snows in winter.
- Its a beautiful city in that its got a lot of gardens, and its flat.
- Its quite close to some of the most beautiful scenery in the world.
- Property taxes aren't too high and the city is generally well run as far as I know.
- Population consists mainly of Europeans and you get a lot of people with Scottish ancestry down there.
- Its quite a friendly city, its friendlier than up north and the further north you go the less friendly the people are. Though im not saying that anywhere is unfriendly.
- Some traffic issues but nothing like in the U.S.A.
- Tends to get a little smog in winter due to the use of coal for heating although its being phased out.
