Ok, ok-“ghetto” was TOO strong a word! I take it back, all you SilverCresters!

Good point about the foreclosures-that is probably why some lawns were not kept up (I thought the HOA covered the front lawns, no? Bummer!). I’m willing to concede that my desire to be nearer the beach can cloud my judgement when I look at houses in San Marcos.

And I’m sure it will be much nicer than what we’ll get into in Encinitas. So thanks for the luck-we’ll need it!
