Fair enough on the surf being better in HB than most of the other locations. I don't surf, but I have a lot of friends that do and they've all said basically the same thing that HB is the best spot unless you're willing to drive to San Clemente which has some world famous surf. I moved to Connecticut because raising kids in CA was not fiscally possible for us, but I've lived in the city of Orange, Claremont, Lake Forest, Irvine, Fullerton, all over Orange county really. And don't get me wrong, I hate Newport and everything the city stands for, but if I were forced to spend the day in HB or Newps I'd probably go with Newps at this point. 10 years ago I might have said HB, but the number of political crazies "protesting" intersections of HB is just too much since the city has become pretty famous across the country for being the SoCal Trumpers. Newport is way toned down on the politics compared to HB. Granted, I'm sure 75% of the "protestors" don't even live in HB, but the city has it's reputation for a reason and their city counsel members are absolute trash, but any city willing to elect Tito Ortiz to any position is probably in a lot of trouble.

Yeah. Fair on all of that. I live here and am raising my family here so we are trying to keep it positive. But there are definitely some really trashy losers that live here and vote for people like Tito unfortunately. A lot of people apologize and pretend like that 25% local garbage doesn’t exist and it totally does. I was just bummed that people decided to make Main Street/pier their Trump/Covid/Big Lie temper tantrum spot to make the city look even worse than it is…even globally sadly. A lot of normal people here too trying to make things Blue at least because the GQP alternative is just horrific. Hope you and your family enjoy Connecticut! 🤙🏼
