[quote=UCGal]The neighborhood over on Ramsey is actually pretty nice – I have good friends who lived on Finsen until very recently – they regret leaving their neighbors behind. Said it was the best neighborhood and set of neighbors they’ve ever had.
The power line showing in the last picture of the Ramsey house is just normal distribution lines. It’s an older neighborhood that still has above ground lines. They’ve been converting South UC to underground lines – but there are pockets (including my street) that still have above ground lines.
CDMA Eng – I scoop poop and my dog is friendly… No worries there. LOL.
AN – not sure why UC high doesn’t score as well. The 3 elementary schools all score ok – Spreckels is a little lower… probably because it’s a magnet school for spanish language – so a lot more english language learners from lower socio economic background. I’m actually concerned about the performance of Standley Middles school and UCHS. May have to choice into Mira Mesa HS.[/quote]
Thank you UCGal for your comments about the neighborhood.
About the schools. It seems that one may be able to get better schools, better price and newer homes in MM than in UC. The only tradeoff is a commute time, but not bad (if in West MM) – we are NOT talking Carlsbad commute!
The lower scores – could it be because many people retire there so not much fresh population with kids moves in – therefore they’d bus a lot more kids in, many English-second-language?
