[quote=Tin369]Sorry I am on mobile, but thanks for steering me away from Torrey garden apartments.
Being in Carmel valley it is surprising to see that it has bad reviews specially the theft.
We are not set on any location yet but would like to stay a bit closer to take advantage of being close to family which is why we want to temporarily relocate there and hopefully make a permanent move.
We are open to renting townhouse or sfh.
I think anything along the 56 should be good. Is Rancho penesquitos really 10 degrees hotter than the coast?
We are most confused about schools (kindergarten) and if we decide to come in August will they still enroll us?
We want to save money and not send to private schools. As we will be paying mortgage on our house in the east coasts nd eating that cost while also paying high renting in San Diego.
Airbnb is not any cheaper and I am not seeing anything less than $3000, La Jolla is close to 4-5k.[/quote]
10 degrees hotter in RP. It depends. Carmel Valley is large, the closer you are to the coast the more of the ocean breeze you get. The 8-10 degree difference is an approximate based in my cars temperature gauge as I’ve seen it change from I15 to 56west all the way to the 5 interchange. It’s not always that different… sometimes…
Kindergarten enrollment. If you come in August, they should allow a late enrollment. You might not get the school of your choice even if you live in the boundary but they should let you enroll at least one school in the district . Example, if you rent a home that you think will give you access to Ocean Air, they might be at capacity, so they might make you enroll your kid at Torrey Hills or Ashley Falls or one of the schools not as crowded.
Personally, I don’t think it really makes that much difference in the DMUSD district which school it is. It might be of a difference in a different district where the schools are drastically different…mainly based in parental involvement. The best thing I would do is look up the school district’s office and call them and ask. the DMUSD usually has an office open for calls over the summer. And Poway Unified I think does too.
Carlsbad is also a very nice area, but I’m guessing you want to be closer to LJ. Traffic won’t be as bad probably when they finally finish the I-5 expansion. I think in 2021-22
