[quote=yong92127]How do you think of this property?

http://www.redfin.com/CA/San-Diego/13565-Freeport-Rd-92129/home/4601758%5B/quote%5D

It has a convenient location. – very good size bedrooms and A/C and it seems to be in move-in ready condition. Not much of a grassy yard at all. You may get some noise from Carmel Mtn Rd and 56, though trees may block some of it. The location is a bit busy.

It’s an REO and they reduced their place already some. I think it’s still overpriced with the lack of yard and busy location.

The elem school is Los Penasquitos, API > 900 so pretty good, but Mt. Carmel high.

[quote=Scarlett]AN, I haven’t been in the Calle Cristobal neighborhoods, is it just as likely as in SW Mira Mesa to have lots of cars on the street?

That was a very interesting finding about the demographic, guys love their toys… I was wondering if there are differences between NW and SW Mira Mesa in demographics or perhaps HOA that might not allow that many cars on the street at all times.[/quote]
IIRC, there were a house or two on some streets North of Calle Cristobal that have a lot of cars. So it’s really dependent on the street. It’s not as bad as SW MM though. I doubt the HOA is that strict up there, because I do remember seeing at least a few houses w/ a lot of cars. I haven’t been up there in a couple of years but when I used to live around there, I used to walk through those neighborhood all the time.

Besides having more male increase the chances of having more cars per person, I think an area that have more Asian would increase the chances of having more cars per house as well. Due to the fact that Asian are more likely to be pack rats, Asian are more likely to have grown up kids living at home too, so, if you think about 2 parents and 2 kids, that’s minimum 4 cars per house. Based on sandag forecast here: http://profilewarehouse.sandag.org/, I think the chances of having more cars on the street in MM & 92129 wouldn’t surprise me, due to the fact that Asian population there are growing. It’s more prevalent in MM because Asian are the majority in 92126. I think 92126 is the only zip code I’ve found that White is not the majority.

I used to rent in that area (just south of Calle Cristobal). I liked the area – but there were too many cars on my street. Mainly because a few houses were rented out to UCSD students who would live 4+ per house with 1 car/person. This particular street also did not have a lot of street parking.

I loved the area and would recommend it. You may however want to check the street for parking issues if you like anything there. The only other complaint was that Vons was kind of far. This may no longer be an issue because of a new store at the corner of Camino Santa Fe/Mira Mesa Blvd.

Thanks, I see. This is useful to know. In general in Mira Mesa and PQ one needs to see that particular street and nearby. We will focus more on NW Mira Mesa/Calle Cristobal.
