[quote=sdcellar]Seems tough to compare San Diego and L.A. real estate. They don’t seem to have what we have and vice-versa. At least not in the non-dicey areas.
That said, L.A. is a big place, so I’m sure there’s a lot I don’t know. That said, my most recent cruisings through the big city took me through Burbank and a few weeks later up into the Hollywood Hills. Both areas surprised me for what real estate they had available (and recently sold), but neither could translate to anything here (at least not for me).
Burbank, for example, could best be described as “inland”, but it’s not like any inland I know of here in Diego. Not saying it’s better or worse, just different.[/quote]
Correct. LA and SD are very different, and you can’t really compare WRT how far an area is from the coast. The Valley, for instance, is inland, but because of its proximity to the studios, etc., a lot of people in the entertainment industry (and other, high paying industries) live there, so it’s more desirable — and more expensive — than Escondido or an area that is equally “inland” in SD County.
I’m pretty busy, but when I get a chance, I’ll try to come up with “equally desirable” houses/neighborhoods to your houses, AN.
