I’ve enjoyed reading this very informative thread, and totally agree with poorgradstudent and sdrealtor regarding income vs. net worth, generally speaking, and specifically with regard to property holdings in San Diego County.
Many families, like ours, who have been in San Diego for many years have acquired true “gems” when it comes to property. We initially concentrated on properties in the Point Loma (Fleetridge, etc.) and Sunset Cliffs areas, and continued to purchase more all along the coast. Several family members are still in their original homes, others have passed their properties on to the next generation, and others are rentals.
Most of this had to do with being at the right place at the right time, and recognizing the potential of what used to simply be considered nothing more than a “Quiet Navy Town.”
Since growing up here, my family (wife and kids) have lived many other places in the world, but we always seem to come back to San Diego. Regardless of exactly where in the County each of us live,
we are truly blessed to be here–so just enjoy!!
