flu, last time I looked, you weren’t left in charge of directing this discussion ;=][/quote]
You’re right, I’m not. And it’s not “mandatory” to comply. Nor frankly do you see me responding directly to your posts on this thread (until now)…Because until now, I really was hoping to keep this thing as data driven as possible for the benefit of the new person.
But let me respond, long form… I look at this website, because I was drawn to the useful information when I joined years ago. And in a lot of ways, seeing how things are, we have so many off topics, and so many on topic slapfests elsewhere. That’s all good. Heck, I frankly don’t mind the slapfests when we talk about investment opportunities elsewhere. And done so myself…shamelessly.
But this is one of the *few* threads that a new person was pretty clear on what she was asking for. So I found it refreshing that this was a thread for which some people, who really live in specific areas, could just post something about specifically where they live right now, for better or worse. If a relatively factual description of a given area one lives in doesn’t seem to fit what she is looking for, she could spend more time looking elsewhere where what folks describes seem to fit better for what she is looking for.
This isn’t a thread about which area is better or worse. I thought it would be more useful for folks to describe the actual schools their kids go to, because after all she did specifically ask what are the schools like. And from that, it appears secondary, local amenities…All, within the confirms of a “safe” neighborhood, which I think most areas would qualify for.
This is where current data would be helpful. Not many years ago for instance Torrey Hills was Sorrento Hills, the 56 bypass was not completed, etc etc etc. There was no Otay Mesa, and San Marcos schools weren’t nearly on the rise as they are now…Things change. Current people that live there currently have more specific data that can be very useful. That’s all I’m saying.
But like I said, this isn’t a compliance thing. So feel free to exercise your constitutional right to post whatever you want.
On many threads, BG, you’ve provided many many useful information yourself..Because in those things, I learned something new that I would have not otherwise learned. And for that, thank you.
