Haven’t bought yet and probably will still wait a year or two…
Theoretically Chula Vista is not yet off the table, nor is San Marcos. We can swing our commutes to avoid rush hour and maybe work some from home. We are trying to get something nice and cheap(er)…so we could subsist on a single salary for a while – which seems to be in the cards sometime in the future…sigh. So we will sacrifice the commute for the price. But good schools is a requirement. San Marcos has the advantage of close proximity to biotech companies and such where one of us may end up working.
Note: We haven’t started to look physically into any other area beside PQ – we are just thinking aloud…I am sure to post more when we narrow down our search area.
