“Would you rather have your children rub elbows with illegal aliens and kids from Chula Vista ghettos, or send them to a school with good demographic in Poway school district?”
Chula Vista is not ghetto, National City (which borders Chula Vista), South Bay, City Heights, these are ghetto. Get your facts straight esmith.
Although I do agree with the fact that the closer you get to the border, the uglier and dirtier some areas get, I disagree that Chula Vista isn’t just as good as some of the neighborhoods further up North. Chula Vista happens to have very nice areas and good school: Rolling Hills, Eastlake, Bonita, and some areas in old Chula Vista which happen to be very nice as well. I think it’s unfair to judge Chula Vista in a negative manner just because there are a higher percentage of immigrants. I have been a resident in old Chula Vista since we moved from Tennessee 8 years ago. We sold our condo back in May in old Chula Vista, and currently we rent in the nicest part of Chula Vista hoping that prices will fall even more so that we may purchase our home – target area—Rolling Hills/Eastlake.
Just out of curiosity, are you familiar with the nice areas of Chula Vista, have you ever visited esmith?

Otay Lakes and Eastlake are not ghettos, but some areas further to the west are lower-middle-class neighborhoods, especially west of 805.
One way to look measure “ghetto”‘ness is the percentage of free/reduced price lunches (i.e. percentage of poor/ghetto kids in a school). In 4S Ranch and RB it’s something like 5-8%, in Eastlake it goes up to 15-20%. Although, even that is much better than district averages of 40%-ish in Chula Vista and Sweetwater districts.
Also the demographic does not help. Not that I’m a racist (I’m an immigrant myself) but I’m not sure if my kids would fit in well in a school where only 20% of kids are white.
