    What do you guys think about Bay Park long term? I am so conflicted about it (I current live in Bay Ho).

    On one hand how many neighborhoods are this centrally located, with many homes having views of the ocean and Point Loma. Not to mention you are so close to the ocean.

    On the other hand that are so many dumpy houses, many people don’t take care of their lawns, the surrounding services are horrible (very little in the way of restaurants, stores, a downtown, or decent grocery store).

    I don’t think the School District is very good either.

    What do you guys thing long term for this area of San Diego???

    I read an interesting article a few years back which would give me concern about Bay Park. The southern end of Bay Park (just east of Sea World Drive and extending north) has had a significantly higher percentage than normal of residents who developed leukemia/cancer. From what I recall, the landfill located on what is now the south end of Mission Bay Park (parallel to the river) was used as a dump for toxic chemicals many decades ago and apparently the toxicity got into the soil and water below the ground. In fact, that very same area still is vacant today – makes you wonder why the city/county has yet to build on the property considering its prime location.

    A few months back you seemed to be getting serious about Scripps Ranch. What happened?

    Scripps Ranch was poo-poo’d for a couple reasons…

    1. Girlfriend (now fiancee) was concerned about the fire risk. Concerned was actually a very light term. She was/is VERY concerned about it.

    2. We decided that we would not be happy living so far from the beach. I grew up in La Jolla, lived in Pacific Beach 9 years after that, currently live in Bay Ho. Going any further east is really not a option we decided.
