[quote=flyer]I’m sorry to see this has turned into such a negative discussion, but the OP did ask our opinions about living in a particular location. I gave various reasons why I would not live in a particular location (even though my intention was not to offend), and others have given reasons they would.
I think it’s pretty safe to say many of us will never agree on this topic, but at least we’ve given the OP much food for thought. I just hope all of this helps him or her make a good decision, based upon his or her particular needs.[/quote]
Actually, flyer, it was not my intention to turn this into a negative discussion. I’m aware that AN is naturally argumentative and I’ve heard the term “Chula Juana” for the last 40 years. Carry on. It doesn’t bother me a bit as I live amid million-dollar estates of up to 4 AC, right in the heart of Chula Juana. Let’s see if I have that last part spelled correctly … J-U-A-N-A, (rhyming with Tijuana), LOL ….
While select ignorant North City and North County residents put us down, our kids will keep winning nationwide academic decathlons and graduating dozens of IB Diploma candidates and a few Rhodes scholars every year and scoring among the top schools in the region on the STAR and CAHSEE testing. No one can take that away from them. AND, our school districts are not in danger of going bankrupt. Stick that in your hat, folks.
Sorry, but the SD North County schools aren’t the be-all and end-all. The PUSD is not the only game in SD County to buy into for families with school-age children. In fact, it is teetering on the edge of bankruptcy. You must know that there IS life outside of North County and North City SD. I just wanted to put that out there.
And I just wanted to educate on the meaning of economic obsolescence and the fact of Revenue and Taxation Code section 2270 et seq on CA’s books. I don’t look at RE the way a lot of today’s buyers and sellers do. I look at it through the lens of owners’ rights and obligations and marketability as these doctrines apply to a particular property.
My posts had nothing to do with my “feelings” but everything to do with how the world works. It doesn’t matter if you are able to sleep like a rock with the SR-52 whirring by your home 24/7 and Miramar planes gunning overhead 16 hrs per day. Folks can take my posts for the info they provide or leave them at their peril. There is no cure for economic obsolescence.
