Little Lady, 20 miles at 65mph is 18.51 minutes. That’s if you never slow down or stop.
25 minutes is generous. Plus you have to nagivate the La Jolla traffic to get to the beach.
Like I said, I go to Santee for business and it’s a good place — generic and very middle class America. Mission Gorge is the kind of main street that you’d find in almost every newer town in America. Nothing wrong with that.
I don’t think the level of college education of the Santee population is very high. Let’s not even talk advance degree. Santee is mostly trade workers, military, et al. White or off-white population that is Republican and anti-immigrant but don’t hesitate to employ the Mexicans on their landscape projects. If that’s what you like, then all the better for you.
