Commuting from SD’s urban core to and from an employer situated to the north would be a breeze on I-5 or SR-163 as the “rush hour” would be on the opposite side of the freeway.[/quote]
When’s the last time you’ve done this? I can guarantee you that traffic goes north in the morning and south in the afternoon. So you are sitting in traffic and not the other way around. The only way for you to be against traffic is if you live around Mira Mesa area and work in the urban core.

You can change time you want to see instead of live traffic data.
[quote=bearishgurl]THAT is “why it is so.” Hence the mantra, location, location, location (which CAN NEVER BE FIXED after purchase).[/quote]
Yep yep yep, location location location is the key. Buy as much lot as you can at the best location you can. That’s why I rather get a 1000 sq-ft house on a 5000 sq-ft lot in Del mar with an ocean view than a big house on 1+ acre in Chula Vista or Escondido.
