Bugs you are spot on about the cars. We had a neighbor in North Park (we moved) whose roof looked lke it was about to cave in, but he had a Mercedes SUV parked on his front lawn. The neighbor on the other side was a professor at State who wasn’t shy about telling us he used an equity loan to buy a Mercedes and a Land Rover. Last I checked young professors were not making 6 figures at SDSU.
I have wondered about all the new homes I see being purchased here in North Park. After living here for four years, I’ve seen dozens of the same houses being sold multiple times. Prices are going flat but they’re still getting upwards of 700K here in Burlingame for “cute” stucco houses. Who is buying? I only see mention of houses in North County on this blog. Who’s buying here in central San Diego?
