Housing prices have dropped all over So Cal. But, I'm not down all that much in my area. I'm down about $50K from a year ago.
(House is still worth about $200K more than I owe on it and about $400k more than I paid for it)

But, I don't want to move or deal with all the crap involved in selling my house and moving until I retire and LEAVE this shit-hole...

Our public transportation is pretty good back here...Were spread out too but have good train and fair bus coverage...With gas prices up there are no empty seats and they do not want to buy/add any more train cars or busses to the existing routes...I guess they think gas will go down and people will start driving again...I don't think NJ Transit has the $$ for new equipment either...People will bitch like hell but don't want to pay for increased service...Where do they expect the $$ to come from?

just curious dave , they have public transportation in your area right ?? wouldnt it be cheaper to take a bus or subway ???. just stay off the yellow short buses.:DThe public transportation system here sucks. It would take me close to 2-hours to go 34 miles to work.

Believe me, I've thought about it.

California doesn't have the system/infrastructure in place like most of the North-East U.S. does...

Nope, I won't ride with the "Special" people. I see enough of them everyday on the road...LOL
Public transportation in southern California is similar to this area, everything is so spread out and has historically been easier to drive yourself than go through all the routes and exchanges to get where you need to go.  I thought I was gonna take a bus to downtown once until I tried decyphering the schedules and routes.
