I live in the San Francisco Bay Area. This is one of the most expensive places to live in the country. I am also the only person in the north bay area who seems to have quail. People could get them cheaper, but they'd have to drive 2+ hours to get them. Not worth the gas. Gas prices are also higher here than just about anywhere else (it was up to about $4.50/gallon before the shutdown. It's down to a little over $3/gallon now, I think.)

Everyone is rich there.
Here the low octane stuff was $1.76 a gallon last week. I filled up a week before and even then the high octane stuff my truck requires was $2.30 a gallon.
