I might consider it, though I’d likely ditch Encinitas. Might look somewhere like Oceanside (nicer neighborhoods) that are reasonably quick to I-5. I’ve been pretty impressed with traffic flow from this area to the Genesee Road area of La Jolla/UTC. Since we do private school no need to worry about schools if the house is right.
I say that because it’s been hit harder and not nearly as bad a commute as San Marcos (talking of towns with bigger drops). That area around Rancho Santa Fe/Olivenhain road is a mess though I think it will soon be two lanes which should help.
