Participantdjrobsd,
Do you really want to live around a bunch of spoiled rich peeps?
This is a major issue for my family as well, but we are finding (through private school tours) that we would face as big, if not bigger problem with the private school crowd.The best (or worst in this case) is the private academy in my local ‘expensive school district’–these people buy the multi-million dollar homes to be in the desirable school district, and then pay $20k per year to go to private school.
I am not poor, but damn, that takes lots of disposable income.-one muggle

Couldn’t you get an intra-district transfer to Hearst or Green elementary schools? Those are close to you and have great reputations.

ParticipantYeah, we could put our little in at Hearst and might just do that after hearing all you out. Makes more financial sense and I’ll still be able to travel and enjoy life.
One cost CV will add is gas. It’s about 10-miles further away from Downtown than I am now. Over the next few years, I am sure we’ll see a significant increase in fuel costs.
Allied Gardens, as run down as you are, you make a life easy. There is no sense in moving now and bailing out someone in CV that paid too much for a cookie cutter home.
Just wish my equity was real money.

ParticipantAnother thing to consider: there are lousy schools in “good” districts, and excellent schools in “bad” districts. You really need to visit the particular schools you plan to send your kids to, to get a feel for the quality of their education.
Also – while Jane Doe may think that high standardized test scores make for a good school, Joe Smith might think it’s important to have a great music program or emphasis on writing, etc. Be sure to pay attention to the values you want for your kids along with the usual spreadsheet of test scores by district.
