[quote=bearishgurl][quote=Russell]Is there any place in the county that is more cloistered by freeways than Clairemont? Where are kids supposed to play without the major risk or a drive by abduction? Tiny little parks on busy surface streets . . . [/quote]
I just can’t resist jousting Russell’s comments. Wow, Russell, where do YOU live that’s superior to Clairemont?? Could it be . . . Jamul??? omg, better have an acct. with a muffler shop!! Getting into some of those driveways out there can be challenging unless you’re driving a lifted truck – LOL. Oh, and I know two “executives” that purchased out there during the “bubble,” and have since spent a small fortune on remodeling, concrete, fill dirt, etc. Alas, the area has CRATERED in value and they are SO UNDERWATER, cash-wise. Still there, because they have so much CASH INVESTED. What else can they do??
Where did I say I live in a superior community? Jamul would be off topic on this thread right?Actually, not fighting for my neighborhood here.If I mentioned Jamul I apologize for the thread-jack. I don’t think I did. I was trying to Focus on Scarlett’s parameters. I did give credit for the fact that there are trade-offs. Don’t know what your jousting has to do with anything unless you feel defensive or want to fight too. What do screwed executives have to do with anything?
I Keep an open mind. Don’t “label” a community unless you have intimate knowledge of it. ‘Nuff said.
This is so true. It has been a real eye opener to see how what you are talking about applies to places like El Cajon. I go there a lot more than I ever would have to get my muffler fixed and such.The prejudices against the place are just wrong. There are some awesome neighborhoods.Overall it is fine too, like Clairemont and Chula Vista. After all people are just people with various real life limits or even self imposed limits to their choices.
