More support: People with kids move from less than a mile away to get into my hood all the time. They move from within the school district to do so. There is a reverse prospecting system (the ones that realtors sign their clients up to receive automatic emails on). When you list a property you can see how many emails go out within 24 hours which shows you how many are watching it. In my hood about 800 go out!!! For everyone who is here there are hundreds of others waiting for the right house to get in here.
I dont have to prove anything to you because I see it every day. The last 5 high sales in my community were to families that moved up in the neighborhood. Familes that stayed in a so called cookie tract neighborhood when they could afford LJ, DM or RSF. I saw another family spend over $500K a couple years ago dramatically overimproving their house (they know it and can afford it) instead of m,oving to Olivenhain or RSF. Its just a unique situation here. It is what it is.
BTW I said yours would have to drop BELOW 200K not to 200K in less than 2 years. Obviously you dont think that is possible. Mine would have to get back to roughly 1998 levels for CAR to win and it wasnt even built then LOL.
