      San Jose, California

      There are several good things about living in San Jose:

      1. The San Jose Sharks
      2. Although San Jose has more people than it's neighbor to the North (San Francisco) it's not as crowded on the roads or sidewalks.
      3. It has the lowest crime rate in the U.S. for a city its size.
      4. Ethnic diversity (I like it mainly for the different types of foods).
      5. Location, location, location. 45 minute drive to San Francisco, Oakland, or Santa Cruz.

                              COLLEGE BASKETBALL!!!! There's nothing like college sports, IMO... This place is on its ear during college basketball season. Most places have maybe one or two teams in the entire state. You've got UNC, dook, and the farmers within a 25-30 area squaring off, and it's just great.

                              We've also got a proliferation of WGWB (White Girls With Booty) around here, but alas and alack, I'm married, so I can't do anything about it... I saw one this afternoon, when I went to the Dairy Queen while shopping at the outlets in Smithfield.... Talk about stacked...
                              The triangle has to have the record for most malls in one area. I only lived there for two years but during those two years there were about 5 malls being built lol.
