You should move to Reno.  If you want to ride year round that is the place 
to be.  When we lived up there we rode 364 days out of the year. You are 
still close to S. CA if you get homesick. We thought the schools were great 
and the kids always felt safe.  Lots of horse stuff happening all the time. 
You will never get bored.
