I had to comment on the the Fly Rod and Reel Magazine article.

Ashland, Oregon is one of the towns, 30 miles south of me. I think the median home price is about $450,000 not $140,000. If they just mean Jackson county, then maybe $300,000.

Ashland is a great town, especially of you have a Fidel Castro poster in your living room. Or you like to be taxed. Its probably 20 miles from the Rogue River, so odd choice. The fly shop listed is not in a good part of town (Medford) , and is 20 miles from Ashland, when Ashland has two fly shops. Its the one shop I never go to.

I would have picked Shady Cove as the town.
