There is just *something* about many places that turns me off. Well actually I know – I like new, clean areas with thoughtful design, master planned neighborhoods, easy access to shopping, office parks, freeways, wide roads, clear skies. Low crime, good schools, newer housing stock are also pluses. Oh, and access to decent beaches every now and then. Maybe its just me (and Temeculaguy, Paramount and Nor-LA-SD guy) but there is something about the area that feels “right”.
There’s something about that feeling that is hard to find – I went to Del Mar and Carlsbad this weekend to explore more and it just didn’t feel right. Sure it’s by the coast and exclusive, but if I’m going to pay coastal prices I’d prefer South OC to North SD. That’s just me though. I’m strange like that.

I’m with you, I like clean, new master planned neighborhoods.
But my wife hates them. She thinks they’re fake and contrived. :p oh well

T.V. That South (newer) OC feel at a fraction of the cost.
Of course instead of 10-15 minutes to the beach it’s 35-50 minutes but I guess there has to be some downside.
