You have to consider the difference in housing cost between VA and the part of California he is talking about.
Hell I just moved from southern CA to Texas and the cost of living is so much drastically lower in TX.
Not too sure what the real estate differences are between CA and VA, but I am sure there is a difference in VA's favor.
