You're considering a move to Los Angeles for a job in Irvine. You and your (stay-at-home) wife are both in your early 30s, and have two young (under two years old) children. You were raised in the midwest, and prefer the suburbs. You want to live in an area that has lots of other young families and easy access to eating and shopping and preschools and other things like that. You don't want to spend more than 30 minutes or so commuting. You want to spend about $3,000 per month on rent for a 3+ bedroom single-family-home (or condo, you suppose). What areas of Los Angeles do you focus on?

Please help me find a way to explain to my SO that while I absolutely adore him, it'll be hard for me to drop everything and leave to be with him in another country in a year's time. We've discussed this previously and I agreed, but I wasn't anticipating the sort of exciting workload I now have, and would loathe to leave behind. I'm a ball of confusion and anxiety.
