ParticipantI agree with all of your posts zk. I think it is one of those, “to each his own”. For our family I found value in Scripps for a bit less then CV and the family atmosphere works for us. Now taste wise my wife would rather be a bit more rural into Poway. Anyways I agree with you, I think they are very similar, there are some parts about Scripps I like alot that CV doesn’t have. However I hate the commute down Pomerado with a passion!

Yes, to each his own. I really like Scripps Ranch and I think you get better value there.
Here’s one thing about Carmel Valley that I find interesting (and good). In Scripps Ranch (we lived there for almost 5 years), if you have a million dollar house, you’re king of the hill. And some of the people there would act pretty uppity about it. (Not most or even a lot, but some.) Their Escalade and their McMansion and they were hot stuff. Pretty annoying, really. In Carmel Valley, there are $3 and $4 million dollar houses right up the street. The kids of the would-be-uppity go to school with truly rich people. They meet and hang out with these people. They realize their Escalade and their million-dollar house put them way, way below the summit of the local mountain. And suddenly they’re not so uppity anymore. And the rich are rich enough to not have to be uppity. The ones we know are, without exception, humble. So there is, almost paradoxically, less “keeping up with the Joneses” here than you find in a lot of upper-middle class neighborhoods. Which is nice.

ParticipantWhat I love about Carmel valley is seeing all the bald 50ish men walking around with their 30 something girlfriend and/or wife with the 2-3 year old toddler sealing the deal…who also btw drive like shit, no matter what they drive.Lol it’s hysterical
One time I ran into some old guy, and saw the baby in the stroller. I accidentally, said “what a beautiful grand daughter” to the man and said “you and your dad must be proud” to the woman. She immediately corrected me “yes, my husband and I are very happy.”…..
Oops… I guess one never knows
