You have to remember, CV is different than CV and different than CV. CV is a large area. there is the south part that runs off of carmel mountain road near the five, the north part of the 56, the east part considered pacific highlands ranch. They are all a lot different from each other. The part I talk about and live is in south of the 56 near the 5.
Being close to the coast is only worth it if you are a true beach goer. Even from 4S you are only 15 minutes away so big deal. It does get a lot warmer in 4S area but there is a pro to that. There are a lot of times in CV where its warm during the day but gets foggy and cold at night where at CV its still warm and you can sit outside and enjoy the weather where in CV you honestly want to stay inside, this is true from may-august.
There are also parts of CV that are absolutely batshit insane when it comes to home sizes. There is a little road up a hill off of Carmel mountain that are huge. I mean HUGE. Then there is Del Mar mesa duck pond and those gated communities. CV is different depending on which part. It does vary a lot. But go to Vons, walk around and say hi to people and see which ones say hi back. its very rare. I have no idea where that jackass that comments on how I approach people knows anything. I am a very firendly and nice person. I just call BS when I see it and that seems to upset people.
