I live there am quite active with a local Little League, and coach some basketball as well, and thus run across a lot of people. I definitely fit into sdrealtor’s anecdotal NCC resident, and I have a hard time believing there are not a lot more like us. Sure there are kids with single moms in apts. and a few teachers kids, but there are a surprising number of attorney’s, high level salesmen, big finance types engineers way up the chain, etc. Heck one guy that coaches my younger son who seems so meek and humble (but drives amazing cars), I just found out has been CEO of two companies, one that was very well known in the tech industry. I’d have never guessed that coaching around the guy.
On the other hand in my neighborhood, I am one of the few well educated, high earners, but most of my neighbors bought 12-15 years ago when you could be a bartender or school janitor, and still purchase a home. The homes are all small (>1100 Sq. Feet) All interesting people, and quite fun, and have been very accepting of a renter like me. Wife would gladly buy in this area, except I told her anything north of 350K for these houses forget it I am not touching since rent is $1800.
