Strange. I thought liberals were into diversity … huh.
Anyway, I have a daughter at SLO. We wondered the same thing when she started there but that was 2020 so it didn’t make sense since so few kids were on campus. Still, I wish we had done it. Finding housing is very tough, very competitive and we are paying 4BR rates for a 2BR place that has cheap partitions thrown up in the bedrooms. Plus appreciation since 2020 would be significant. I’d say go for it and look for a 4 BR place so you can get a group of 4 to each have their own bedroom.
SLO is definitely more conservative than much of California but I have seen evidence of both there. The numbers showing a fairly even split make sense.
