Anyone that pays a premium to have a certain mailing address – where there are no other mitigating factors such as quality of schools, etc. – deserves to lose 50% of the value of their home. I hope this proposal goes through. It sounds like the residents of these “excluded” – and clearly inferior – areas have been profiting off the good name of Rancho Santa Fe for long enough. Let’s stop the madness.
raptorduck, are you trying to tell me that you’d be willing to pay a meaningful premium simply to have your mail delivered to a RSF address? To have your checks with a RSF address? To be able to tell people at a cocktail party that, yes, your mailing address is in RSF? Same schools, same neighbors, same quality of housing, same weather, etc. – and you’d be willing to pay a premium just for the ADDRESS? That just seems absolutely mental illness crazy to me. But, hey, to each their own.
