AN, I didn’t look at the school scores there but I can’t imagine that they’re that much lower than MM.

btw, I thought you posted somewhere that your kid was going to private school. If they are still attending private school, do you EVER plan on sending them to public school?

If not, why are you so focused on “school scores?”

And btw ~$320K / ~$455K is NOT “50-60%.” It is actually 29.3%. And you never even considered the upside potential of the $455K SM fixer (IF they get that much for it) vs a MM fixer for $320K.[/quote]
There’s no longer any need to discuss about me. Lets focus on the data. You’re wrong about the school. San Mateo’s schools are worse than MM, not better.

Do you need to go back and study basic math again? $455k is 42% HIGHER than $320k. How the heck did you get 29.3% higher?

There’s no point in upside potential, since my crystal ball is broken.
[quote=bearishgurl]If I was a GEN Y with the skills SV firms are currently looking for, I wouldn’t waste a second in moving up there, but that is just me. However, I never had any parents living here to help me with kids.[/quote]Yep, that’s just you. You’re not Gen Y and I am. I disagree which is why I’m here. I’m sure those who agree with you are already there. So, for those who chose here vs there, there are reasons you don’t know about. Anyways, it seems like you’re miserable living in an area you don’t want to, while I’m living in the exact area I want. I had plenty of opportunity to move to the “MECCA” of tech, but the numbers just doesn’t work.
