Figured I’d revive this thread, since my wife and I have been looking at places in “north” La Mesa (North of the 8). We’ve seen a few places we like in the 300K range, although nothing we felt comfortable putting an offer in on yet. The feel of the neighborhoods definitely seems to vary on a street-by-street basis. Prices are definitely all over the place, but maybe that’s true everywhere?
Any Piggs currently live in La Mesa? Like the original poster from 2009 we like it because it provides some of the charm and easy access to “the city” of neighborhoods like North Park and University Heights but at a better value and with better schools.
