If ur looking for a quiet place in the hills/upper valley, butte county is the place. Chico, CA is the biggest city in the area but there are many surrounding smaller towns that are great for outdoor and mj friendly. The only downside is there are no dispensaries but Sacremento is only hour away. Butte county allows 12 plants and up to a pound dried. Its a really kicked backed area, im not saying u should move there but like phatsesh said anywhere from SF up is awesome. Oh and clearlake is pretty much the same physical terrain but there are dispensaries there. HOpe this help:thumbsup:
