You bring up a great/logical point. However, logic and the housing market don’t go hand-in-hand. It might be plenty of pressure for the Mira Mesa to get down to reality because the local income don’t support/reflect current pricing. I do hope to a decent GRM or 3x income in the area. I’ve found a site that provides some interesting Demographics/stats for the area issued in 2005.
