[Milsurplus] OT: BA rust in a coastal environment?

[Hue Miller]

This may seem a strange title, but here's the story: I have a 
chance to take a job in a Pacific NW coast town of 8000. 
One of the factors in my decision is my concern over metal
rusting in coastal areas. I have been told that cars rust out
in this town. I am wondering if my heavy metal classic radios
would also tend to rust. I have never lived in a coastal town,
so i don't know if the problem extends indoors as well because
of the salt air. I have been also told that you have to live inland
some number of miles to get away from the rust situation. The
more inland towns are on the Dogpatch side and could be 
depressing, altho it helps to have a hobby, i'm sure. And maybe
room for an antenna farm. The job pays a lot more. I have never
been a ocean coast fan, and get enuff grey days already right
where i am. Turmoil. Appreciate any input, truly.
Tnx, Hue Miller
