[quote=AN]It sounds like you want new, big, and under $600k. If that the combination you’re looking for, there’s not much w/in 30-45 minute (normal w/ traffic) drive. You can go w/ either Santee or Chula. Both have new, big, and under $600k. But the school is definitely not to the same level as PUSD or SDUHSD. I personally would pick Chula over Santee, due to the proximity to the ocean and down town. But I would never want to commute more than 20 minutes (w/ traffic) to work.[/quote]
Not exactly new and big. I want something relatively new (less than 15 years), 2000-2300 sf (not any bigger than that) and around 500K, preferably under, definitely not 600K and definitely not high MR (less than 300/mo) or high HOAs, and good school district ( not necessarily PUSD or del Mar). So a relatively average SFR. And I compromised on commute, to 45′ instead of 20′ what we both have now (work in La Jolla, rent in UTC).
I don’t think I am asking for too much, am I? I just don’t know much about the rest of San Diego except UTC, Carmel Valley, Penasquitos, RB. There must be areas that satisfy those things, esp. school district. It can’t be all that bad.
