      Got that right. People who have never lived in CA or can even afford CA have a lot of garbage to say.

      Same here but born and raised in Northern California. There is NO PLACE LIKE CALIFORNIA!! You can do anything here, almost in one day. Haters are jealous becuase they can't afford to live here, and those that live here and hate on California should just plain leave. (One note on the video is Cambria. I went in the 90s for the first time and it was great - sophisticated art galleries, shops and hotels.I revisted in 2019, and it has turned into one big, tacky junk store of cheap souvenirs and bad art. But the other towns are in this piece are amazing. It's a good bucket list!)

      @@viaveritaschap I’ve noticed ALOT of the haters born/raised in Cali are the young or Gen Z and I believe it’s mostly because that’s all they hear on the internet and theyre an extremely cult-y/hive-mind generation that believes everything they read/hear on the internet. Or maybe they’re just young and havent had a chance to experience Cali’s greatness due to the pandemic stealing those moments from them. Many say they “cant wait to leave” yet have never been anywhere lol. Gonna be a big reality check when/if they end up in the Midwest. Grass isnt always greener on the other side.

    The Birds was filmed in both Bodega Bay and the town of Bodega (which is inland from the coast). Mr. Hitchcock combined the two towns to appear as one town.

    Looks like the photos used for Tahoe City actually show South Lake Tahoe and/or Stateline (Tahoe City has no large casino hotels). But also, for my money, Truckee is nicer than either.

      Not only are you ignorant, but apparently you can't read either. The title is the best SMALL towns in CA. SF is not considered a small town. And it's spelled Newsom, not Newsome. Furthermore, SF & LA are two of the most visited cities in the US, not bumfukk nowhere USA where you're from.
