Thanks sdr, just the type of comments I was looking for. Schools do not matter because we do not have any kids. I have done some checking on crime, and itleast by the numbers it is very low. The isolation kind of goes with the territory for ranch property I think, so that is ok because it is not too far off the beaten path. Sounds like it is itleast worth checking into, maybe we wind up in Olivenhain after all. My wife does not like Olivenhain for some reason, she is afraid progress will result in alot of the horse properties being eliminated over time. That has happened to some areas up here in OC.
I am not in a great hurry, but you never know what you will run into.
