Participant[quote=sdrealtor]What nonsense! We all know the combined percentage of the “Hispanics” in Chula Vista from Puerto Rico, South America, Spain and Portugal has got to be neglible.
BTW, I checked the school API’s and was pleasantly surpised. However I couldnt find any that would be considered “top rated” schools in the county. There were 3 schools with scores between 900 and 920 which is very good and my guess is they would be in those darn newer Mello Roos infested communities you so abhor. Most of the schools were between 850 and 900 which are good solid scores.
Is this another example of you never trying to encourage people to consider specific places to live?[/quote]
If you will note, it was actually Scarlett who stated that Chula Vista was “still on the table” for her, NOT me.
Why don’t you post your “findings” (lol) on schools in South County with the high scores so we can all see what you’re talking about here?
What are the factors you consider a “top-rated” school to have? ;=P We all know that your body of knowledge regarding South County would fit into half a thimble.
And when you’re finished with that exercise, then please fill us in on how Scarlett will purchase in the areas boasting these so-called “top-rated” schools. We’re all waiting with baited breath!

ParticipantPeace! BG has not encouraged me to live in Chula Vista – she actually said at least once that the commute is too much when you have kids and life is short. She is just trying to say that by disregarding some schools based on some internet stats one can miss some opportunities. I agree, to a certain degree. IF I really get interested in CV, I would scope out the schools in person of course. I supposed the ones with mixed race could be influenced to check Hispanic, true, I haven’t thought about it. But still that doesn’t change signifcantly the percentage of white.
Now, I don’t think anything bad about the Hispanics in the schools there (those with good scores). I am sure many if not most, come from quite decent families, with decent education and income, so that’s not a problem. The APIs are mostly very good, so the teachers must be also pretty good.
My concern would be the same if a school has 75-80% Asians or African-Americans etc. and only 5-10% white. I’d prefer not be in such a SMALL minority – IF I have a choice or unless it;s counterbalanced by some other large advantage – e.g. short commute, family there. The advantges could be lower prices, bigger and newer places, etc. It wouldn’t be the end of the world if we were in either. It’s just you know, how well you fit in, and similarity in culture and such. Right now, San Marcos – similar commute, but closer to biotech companies – potential job location – seems like a better match – on paper, at first glance. (Haven’t been there yet as a buyer, so I wouldn’t know for sure.)

May 8, 2011 at 11:26 PM #693744ParticipantA side question to sdr – because I like Carlsbad so much – Can I find (town/twin)homes ( of at least 3 bdr and 1800 sf) in 92009 for low 400s AND low HOA+MR fees? if yes, what developments? Thanks!
