Assuming you are looking to stay near Bishop, I would consider the drought situation in California. As you probably know in the San Juaquin Valley many wells have dried up. Probably the same on the eastern side of the Sierra's. And, you know of the amount of water that heads south to LA. With a city well they would provide the water and find another source if needed. With your own well or community well owned by the HOA you would face the cost yourself or share it with the community if you had to drill deeper or relocate the well. I have my own well and in 12 years had to pull the pump once when a check valve failed. Though our drought is not as bad(yet) I do have concerns about the aquifer. Farmers also pump a lot of water out of the ground. My neighbor just spent 10 grand for a new pump and control. Well was about 15 years old. If you locate a place you like make sure your research the water situation with the seller and county as well as some local well drillers as they usually have a good handle on the water situation.
The idea of relocating somewhere more affordable is worthy of consideration. But, Bishop and the eastern side of the Sierra's in general is a pretty nice place to live.

Today's Featured Article - Box Plow Blues - by Tom Schwarz. One of the first implements most tractor owners obtain is the box plow. For very little money, this piece of equipment promises to plow and flatten any hill or vale on your ranch road or farm. At least that's what I thought! As simple as a box plow appears, it can be rather challenging to make work correctly. In our sandy soils of Florida, traction is king. You can never have wide enough tires or heavy enough weights to get all the traction you want � unless you own a monster tractor. U
