Even though traditional SFR listings (not SS’s) move pretty fast in these cities and and a good portion are undoubtedly all-cash sales, there is a LOT more selection for “regular” SFRs in this region than in SD County. The above are only TWO representative cities (of more than two dozen).
It’s a mid-century home lover’s dream up there! EXCEPT, in SD County, most of the Daltile used in the more “affordable” areas (such as Normal Heights or La Mesa) was yellow or forest green with turquoise trim. In the SGV of LA county, pink with maroon trim was widely used with pink American Standard fixtures.
I also saw a few limestone(ish) and flagstone FP’s as well! I also love the 2.5″ slat red oak floors which are VERY expensive to install today.
