4SB2,
4S is a terrific community. I already own and do not want to move again for a long time. If I move, it will probably be out of California. I did not want to continue the back and forth about the fires and which fire was worse, whose community is safer, etc. You cannot blame the contributors for wanting to get more house for their money. I think one of the reasons would be the high costs for schools in your area. I am sure you get what you pay for and I am not here to detract from anyone’s home, community or their investment. I learn a lot from reading here because of the diversity of opinion and did not want to get personal about issues with you on fire safety, etc. I think the forum is most valuable when it is friendly and contains more facts and fewer argumentum ad hominem attacks. Although they probably spice up the mundane real estate issues, I am trying to be polite and fair. I think we have all read posts here that read like political attack ads.

Thanks for a spirited, albeit biased defense on your part. You seem to be getting a bit hot under the collar.It is really a moot point for me. I’m looking at houses in Carlsbad now, and other coastal areas. I just wanted to highlight that wildfires are a key risk factor in many places in San Diego county and should be factored in any home purchase decision.

April 28, 2008 at 1:41 PM #195771NewtoSanDiegoGuestThe research I’ve done, with my industry access to risk assessment maps show Carlsbad as generally much lower wildfire risk. No place is truly immune from Wildfire in Southern California. It is just the degree of risk that varies.
From my research, South Carlsbad had an voluntary evac only due to smoke in the Fall 2007 wildfires.
I was lucky to have sold my house out east and had my company relocate me out here. Decent relo package but I don’t view myself as rich, perhaps comfortable.
I’m actually returning after a long hiatus, good to be back.
