Isnt Eastern Chula Vista the home of obscene Mello Roos and HOA fees?
In the NCC prime areas, the Mello Roos are typically $400 or $800 per year and most homes have no MR. This is hardly crippling or obscene for people buying homes $700K and above. At my kids schools 2/3rd’s of the households pay $800/yr while the other 1/3rd does not pay MR. Comparable homes in Eastern Chula Vista have MR of $2,000 to $4,000 per year.
The one notable exception is Encinitas Ranch which is not where the school district buyers flock because it feeds into the lowest performing school in the area. The draw of Encinitas Ranch is a pristine golf course/ocean view community close to the freeway and beaches in a great own. there isnt another community like it in all of SD County. (disclaimer-I am not a fan of Encinitas Ranch)
