My FI is a med. student who is also in the Navy. He has one more year of school here in Hershey, and then he will do his residency. Although it''s not 100%, it''s pretty likely that he will do a Navy residency, so we will be relocating to one of the Navy bases. I had been holding on to the hope that he would have a large number of the bases to choose from, as I was really hoping for Newport (I fell in love with it when I visited him there during his basic training) or Hawaii (because, well, it''s Hawaii). But he found out today that the only hospitals that offer programs are San Diego, Ca, Portsmith, VA, and Bethesda, MD. That means we''ll be moving to one of these areas next year. I know I''ll be doing tons of research on the areas, but I thought I''d throw this out there to hear about some first-hand experiences. So do any of you live in these areas? Do you like it? Do they have nice suburbs nearby (I am SOOOO not a city girl)? How is cost of living? Anything else I should know?
