[quote=flyer][quote=scaredyclassic][quote=flyer]We never experienced any of the negative issues being discussed in CV with regard to any age group, and really don’t know anyone who has, so maybe it’s all in the eye (or mind) of the beholder, and I really don’t see the need to make rude comments wrt any particular group of people in order to try to prove a point.

People also seem to think LJ is snooty, but my wife and I grew up there, and still have lots of family and friends there, and most of them are the best, most humble people we’ve ever known.

Imo, everyone should make the choices they feel are best for themselves and their family, and let others do the same.

People choose to live their lives in different ways in different places, and I really don’t understand why anyone would care what anyone else does if they are happy with their own lives.[/quote

Because the people around u affect u tremendously[/quote]

They do, and that’s always been a positive thing for me.[/quote]

And that’s why we care what others around us do, even if we are happy. Like if I’m cooking meth for my own use in my house, u care. Even if you’re happy.

[quote=yuhtey]bear girl, i just think the input thus far has been piecemeal and scattered. just… where exactly are you taking me on this journey to south county? what is the end game – are there going to be pit-bulls and mastiffs?[/quote]

Lol. She recommends buying in chula vista.

Have fun. If you have to get so many opnions on where you should live, you really aren’t ready to buy.

Maybe he’s just laughing at himself. Like what kind of bourgeois shit did I get myself into? Some of you take it too seriously.[/quote]

gotta laugh at the whole process. from the new home sales staff monkeys, to the people whose hobby is to literally buy expensive houses and decorate them only to turn around and sell them after they get bored, to the uptight sellers, the shady agents, it’s a mess.

people in certain areas of california take housing way too seriously. there’s a few dingleberrys in norcal who have sued their neighbors because their neighbor’s autistic child “had a potentially chilling effect on the local real estate values”

Understand that on certain levels, scaredy, but not all, per the OP for the purpose of this discussion.

The OP is arguing both for and against the very thing he/she seems to desire, and imo, you either want/can buy a house in a particular place, or you don’t/can’t regardless of what other people around you are doing.

here are the main issues, and they’re not that bad:

parking at the local stores
a touch of road rage here and there (probably due to the parking issues)
some of the older residents really should move on. they don’t need to be near elementary schools anymore. it’s time to cycle out. not that they should give their houses away – but it’s very clear to the buyers and the agents on both sides that the asking prices are generally too high for properties that have not been freshened up in a long time.

but the market is the market. doesn’t matter what anyone *thinks* just matters what transactions occur.

and so the patient buyer can observe for a few months and then decide what to do next.

Uhh, yuhtey? (You too, flu.) Where exactly on this thread have I recommended to you to buy your first home in Chula Vista?

I actually feel Chula Vista is not for you, primarily due to its “blueness.” We have plenty of custom homes, large lots and wealth down here … we just don’t flaunt it (much akin to the attitude of longtime La Jollans). So, that’s not the problem. The problem here is that your kind would not fit in in these parts, mostly due to your overt intolerant attitude and besides, I feel you would be miserable.

I now feel that you would do best in a relatively plain vanilla walled-in brick enclave of all brick mcmansions, all on one-acre lots surrounding a man-made lake smack dab in the middle of TX (length of commute be damned). The good news is that you can probably afford this! And who knows, you may be able to snag a new construction home to your liking!

Now, all you need to do is get yourself transferred over there stat and buy yourself a nice new $65K jacked-up 4×4 dualie doublecab one-ton-plus pick-em-up truck with shiny chrome Smittybuilt tubular siderails and hang whatever your little heart desires on the tow hitch to go house-hunting in. Don’t be bashful! Fill the back window and bumper with all your tea party and assorted right-wing bumper stickers! ‘Careful how you talk to the locals ’round there, though … even when doing something innocuous … like pumping gas! You might quickly find yourself in an unexpected shitstorm for saying the wrong thing to the wrong person at the wrong time. And I can assure you that there won’t be time for you to fix it.
