“How many houses are in the San Diego area in the $150K range?”
I dont think I was mistaken in assuming that you were referencing a $40K HH income for SD 1st time buyers. Another trend that you failed to address is that people are having kids alot older now. Bright educated woman are graduating with great degrees and ambition. Many choose to put off having kids until 30ish to start a career. By that time their spouse has a much higher income and they often take a few years off only to return to work P/T or F/T once the kids are in school. My neighborhood is full of families living this exact life.
I don’t think there is anything wrong with not being able to or choosing not to go to college. While it certainly has been proven to give you a major leg up, I know plenty of successful people w/o college degrees. As for prices being too high, I agree and have absolutely no problem hearing it. I would love for prices to be more affordable. If they reach what I consider reasonable levels, I’ll buy another 2 or 3 properties.
