Thank you all for the great suggestions. We will drive to the west coast next month onwards and try out some of these places that you have suggested.
@meekie: Thanks. We will now research San Diego too
@IBWino, @omni550: Portland weather might be a concern but will check it out
@TexasProud: Yes, I should have written that as a criteria, good Public Transportation
@REWahoo: Thanks. Austin is also now high on our list. The last time I visited, wasn't too walkable, but could be that we were in a more suburban location
@FinanceDude: We have never been to Charleston, is it diverse enough? Will look into it
@Lisa99: Thanks for the info on findyourspot.com. Will be spending some time on that. I do look at the Walkability Score, will see how I can find those walkable pockets. I too have found that the Walkable areas end up being unaffordable in an otherwise reasonably priced city
@DblDoc: Somehow we eliminated the Seattle area because of the rain/wet climate, but will research Bellevue
@kcowan: Will be trying some of these places soon enough
@Packman: We would like to manage with one car and only use it occasionally and walk or take public transport most of the time (to enjoy the outdoor/ambiance, get in better shape). Colorado might still be too cold, although a lot better than Chicago.
More to follow.
