If that’s what you think, then you don’t understand the draw, you just think you do.[/quote]Well, as AN said, maybe the schools have something to do with the draw.
But since I don’t have children… it’s not a draw that I pay much attention to.
Actually school and location might be a draw for Carmel Valley. But Carmel Valley is essentially the same as Eastlake, Corona, Temecula, San Bernardino, etc… I think that the draw of new master-planned communities is the newness and the “features’ such as entrance monuments, CC&R that keep people in line, red tile roofs, hispanico-italianate architecture, etc…
Houses are products and product makers design them to appeal to a broad array of buyers. Some buyers have different motivations, but there are elements that appeal broadly.
SUV buyers don’t generally buy those cars to go offroad. They buy them for size, the convenient factor of being to throw everything inside, relative affordability as compared to other vehicles, status symbols, to keep up with the Jones, etc…
Just like marketers of other products, housing developers conduct marketing surveys to determine the features they should include for the price. There are fashions and trends in housing.

ParticipantNo area is ever going to be “perfect” when you factor in price. Schools are the only reason Carmel Valley is even on our radar. That and if you have a couple where one works more in the city and the other works north county or OC, avoiding the traffic hell that is the 5/805 split has it’s appeal.
In San Diego the problem feels like you have a choice between Planned communities with good schools and decent $/sq. foot value, Non-planned outer areas that don’t have easy access (i.e. Santee) and may have questionable schools, or areas with relatively high $/sq foot (Pretty much everywhere, from La Jolla to Poway to North Park/South Park/University Heights).
