[quote=markmax33®]You don’t need to get on freeway to move around the area, but some communities (like the small gated community next to Trails mentioned by ocrenter) are 1/2 mile from 14 lanes of I15.
Another thing not mentioned that some find relevant – newer communities tend to be more racially diverse with significant number of recent immigrants. One of the reasons we like 4S. On the other hand a friend of mine decided not to buy in 4S and went to trails instead.
BG linked to a house in nice community (Rancho Arbolitos). Their swim&tennis club is nice and you can walk to stores and a couple of community parks. The schools might not be the best in the school district, some people send their kids to St. Michael’s a couple of miles away.
And what ocrenter says 🙂
Ivy Gate is nice and Romney’s would be your neighbors, but there is nothing available right now.[/quote]
Just saw this, captcha (inside joke) and thanks for pointing that out about some of the communities being too close to a 12-14 lane fwy (I-15). moscin, you have to go stand on the streets and experience for yourself the noise level. If they are higher than the fwy, you will likely hear the whir and echo of tires night and day, even inside the house in some instances and certainly with a window open. The higher the street, the worse it is. This is even true nine blocks to one mile from a wide fwy if the street is high enough and the wind is blowing a particular direction.
And thanks for pointing out the amenities and convenience factor in living in Palisades Poway!
