No downtown here, but it is only 30 minutes to Ventura that has a good downtown area and restaurants, and the ocean. Big drawback.....not much Tiki here......but L.A. and Orange County are nearby if you have a car.....good luck on your move... Amgen - that would be a good place to apply - i used to know someone who worked there... want me to inquire? T.O. and the surrounding areas ain't a bad place to live - they kind of have a Bay area Walnut Creekish kind of vibe.
