“Chula Vista is not ghetto, National City (which borders Chula Vista), South Bay, City Heights, these are ghetto. Get your facts straight esmith.”
Otay Lakes and Eastlake are not ghettos, but some areas further to the west are lower-middle-class neighborhoods, especially west of 805.
One way to look measure “ghetto”‘ness is the percentage of free/reduced price lunches (i.e. percentage of poor/ghetto kids in a school). In 4S Ranch and RB it’s something like 5-8%, in Eastlake it goes up to 15-20%. Although, even that is much better than district averages of 40%-ish in Chula Vista and Sweetwater districts.
Also the demographic does not help. Not that I’m a racist (I’m an immigrant myself) but I’m not sure if my kids would fit in well in a school where only 20% of kids are white.
