i've not lived in CA since 1989. When I did - Thousand Oaks was a VERY expensive neighborhood....
My nephew lives in Camarillo and loves it. He rents so I don't know about taxes. OOOOOHHHH I wish I could remember the site to search for information about a potential living area!!! I'll try and rack my brain for it - but I know that the mama's here will step up and help you out!!
I believe that county taxes in Ventura are less than LA - but don't quote me on that - it's been that long!!
GOOD LUCK!!!
