anyone know if north OC should be a consideration (if we’re considering Valencia). the schools seem better than LA and looks like we could afford a decent home in buena park or Fullerton within our price range. would the commute be just as bad from Fullerton as Valencia/ woodland hills? thanks for any advice you can give.[/quote]
You are spinning your wheels, Orange County is to far, Fullerton forget it. Woodland Hills? to expensive and it is in the Valley (San Fernando). The elementary schools in Valencia are always getting some distinguished award, check the scores. Valencia is a planned community, meaning not crappy strip malls next to homes next to schools next to methodone centers (like the Valley). I guarantee you will not find a better place to buy, rent and raise your kids if your husband is working in downtown. I am reading some of the comments from the people from SD and although they are trying to help they are not. Here are the websites:
Give Neal a call or email him, he will answer any questions on RE from Orange County up to LA and he is THE expert in Valencia (Santa Clarita). Get answers from a pro, not me………
