I think if you grew up in UC, the OLDEST properties up there might be circa 1968 or 1971. My block was built in 1949. [/quote]
close – Parts of UC – including my block, were developed in 62-65. My house was built in 64.
(I get defensive about the age when people start talking about Miramar and how all residents “knew” of the active use at the time they bought – my parents and my neighbors knew there was an airbase… that wasn’t used much at the time – this was pre-Top Gun. It was 68 or 69 that top gun ramped up the usage. Disclaimer – I have no issue with the base, the jet noise, etc.. as long as pilots don’t fly injured planes and land really close to my kids elementary school. I have a good friend who lives 2 doors down from the house that was hit. The jet noise is part of life.)
I can see the generation difference though, between circa 1949 house and 1960’s houses.
We’re the odd ones in our “next gen” bunch on my block – same age as everyone else – but with young kids… What can I say – hubby and I were/are REALLY old to be having kids this young.
