I can be persuaded on the SD area as well but that's about it

This can essentially be reduced to "climate", considering the activities cant all be done in the same day. And if that's the case, anyone can enjoy those without having to live there.

You do understand the difference between coming to visit and actually moving here . . . right?

Those ads aren't telling you to move here. They are encouraging you to come and spend your money at our attractions and hotels and then go the (bleep) home. Which vast numbers of people do year in and year out. And we thank them for the revenue.
