[quote=Scarlett]Wow, 20 minutes. That’d be tall order for buying a 500K 4 bdr SFR to commute 20′ to downtown La Jolla. That is my current commute (from UTC area) – that’s why we RENT there :). I expect to put in more at least 10-15′ more each way if I buy somewhere else. Even PQ is like, 25′ door to door ( my boss lives there). I spend at least 10′ of my commute on La Jolla city streets; that would stay the same regardless of where we live. I put my limit at 30-35′. The PQ commute is much more flexible, plus, one can use either I-5 or I-15 if need be.[/quote]
Scarlett, I know this thread is about PQ and Carlsbad, but did you decide against an SFR in UC? By far, this community is MUCH closer to both of your employment locations than PQ or Carlsbad and is very possibly 20 mins or less to dtn LJ from the west end.
