During winter when you need tire chains, different story altogether. On top of that, traffic from vacationers can be brutal at times. I remember one time having it take 2 hours to get down the mountain when I was a kid. Even with best of circumstances, if you chose to live off the mountain your cities to choose from are not exactly popular destinations. San Bernadino and Riverside are more or less desert towns. That's not to say they are small, but more to do with the type of people and mind set of living in such a place. In other words, not necessarily appealing to a tech savvy individual.Choosing to live on the mountain, well now you pay mountain living prices. Groceries and such are a little more expensive, variety a little less. If you are paying rent, you have to deal with seasonal spikes as Big Bear is the main skiing source in SoCal. While it's not as expensive as the sister mountain to the west, Arrowhead, it does carry a cost of living factor that in combination with all the other aspects makes recruitment undoubtedly tricky.</blockquote>
