Ridiculous in PB?

[Critter]

I agree with awombadavis. My brother has owned a house by the Catamaran for many years. There is a very strong community in that neighborhood who often rally for various causes – the latest was the threat to turn one of the homes nearby into a mini-dorm. The locals made such a stink that the kids who bought the property with that intention sold it to someone ASAP.

I agree about Garnet though – far too many bars on one street. Of course, that was OK when I was in college.

I agree with awombadavis as well. I lived in Crown Point for 12 years and would never sell the condo I have there. I think that most of the venom about PB comes from people who do not live there or have not lived many of the nicer areas of PB. To walk out of my place, have coffee with my next door neighbors, jump on the bike and head through Crown Point park around the bay and all the way to the jetty is something that I miss tremendously. It cannot be replicated pretty much anywhere in San Diego. I do not disagree with comments about Garnet but I don’t go hang out there. Just like another area where I lived (and still own) in Talmadge was very nice but only 4 blocks from El Cajon Blvd.

For the haters of PB one day go down and drive around or walk around the back streets of Crown Point behind Crown Point Drive.

I love it in PB, but prices do not move, any way we can add this area to a tracking thread?

Crown Point area

Is very nice and if prices ever came back to earth, it would be splendid to own a townhome or condo there. However, if it does drop this area will take a long time. Just like Solana Beach, Encinitas, and Point Loma are desirable beach communities of San Diego

James/Mix, yeah it does suck about trying to buy there… entry into the spots of PB where you would want to live, (away from the rentals and drunk 20 somethings sloshing around after hours) is priced in the stratosphere… I have seen some depreciation already in condos/townhomes there but they were so darn high to begin with that they have a ways to go to become affordable, specially for entry level buyers.

I live in Crown Point area now (Rent). As a single guy it is a great area, and one of the better areas by PB standards. But no way in hell I would want to live here long term with a family. I used to live in La Jolla and Crown Point is a dump in comparison.

I don’t know about the quality of schools here but I live near Crown Point elementary and it looks like there are tons of illegal immigrants attending based on the foot traffic I see on a daily basis.

I think prices will crash here in PB just as bad as anywhere, but I wouldn’t be interested in buying here again.
