 I will say, the hiking here is GREAT! Plus, you're close to Sedona and Flagstaff.

  I know! Looking at what we could buy for $400,000 in AZ is what's tempting us to make the move. 3-4 bedroom homes with a huge kitchen and awesome backyard (with a pool!). You're looking at double the price in the Bay Area.
