I wasn't sure where to put this, so here it is.

I'm wondering if anyone can tell me anything about the Sophia Antipolis area? As I understand it, there are many high tech companies in that area. I work in the high tech field (I am a database administrator) and would like to find work in France. I am wondering what it is like living there, how the cost of living compares to Paris, what kinds of apartments or villas are available, what it is like to commute to and from work, and so on.

Thank you!
