I still work, outside the home. I have a 1/2-hour drive each way. If you've ever paid attention to the areas surrounding TV, you will absolutely appreciate that you are able to live here. I sometimes lose that perspective and it is nice to regain.
Again, still working, I appreciate living in the bubble during my off hours. So much of the US is polarized about everything -- schools, politics, law enforcement, entertainment, etc. We bicker and argue here, but at least we are generally in the same socio-economic age group -- our differences are not as vast as what I experienced back north, and working here locally. The Bubble rules.
When we get guests, they utter some form of "You live, permanently, on vacation." It is a compliment to the general upscale environs and offerings of TV.
The Bubble is nice, not perfect, no, no, but really nice.
