Skyranch in Santee

[joec]

Actually, I’m not making it up and you can say whatever you wish to defend your own visits, but when we visited probably upwards of 5 times to Santee in 2008 since we seriously considered buying, we took 1 look at another family visiting Riverwalk and that alone changed OUR minds to live there. My point is that for some folks, the negative stigma and the work in process that’s ongoing will keep them out and affect housing values due to demand from those folks…

Again, I’m not stating everyone who lives there is a tatooed wife-beating shirt wearer with barefoot kids; and that person looking probably doesn’t even live there now, but that’s what we saw and it was enough for us to move on and keep looking.

In the end, people will see what they choose to see, but I certainly can agree with some of the other not so rosy comments of Santee having visited many times…

That’s fine and I am not opposed to people having the opinion that Santee is not good enough for them.

But to say SUCH NEGATIVE things that are blatant lies and sooo absolutely made up like the schools are crap and the people are hillbillies is because someone lost an argument and NOT based on any factual and intelligent debate.

I like it

you don’t

fine stay where you are.

The only reason why this post is ongoing is because none of these people will let it die because they CAN’T be wrong. They are compelled to keep up their arguments.

I wonder how many are married. It must be lovely living with some of these ego maniacs.

I think you’re taking this discussion a little too personally. Maybe since you live there, you feel every negative comment is a personal attack, but all my comments are merely to give other folks an honest, real opinion of why “WE” didn’t choose to move there. Similar to how Skyranchowner posts reasons as to why he chose to live there, most of the comments and my comments here is the other side of the story so to speak.

As for blatant lies, I didn’t talk about the schools at all so I can’t speak for the other person who did, but read my earlier post on the % of sex offenders in Santee vs. the other areas, there is data to back that comment up and was another reason we didn’t choose to move there (any comments from any Santee owners if that metric was a concern for you?).

I think this thread keeps getting resurrected because some folks do seem to like to bash Santee for whatever reason (maybe it’s just to get you folks riled up), but probably also because of comments like calling it “La Jolla of the East” or 15 minutes to the beach comments. 🙂

Anyhow, no one had any thoughts to my earlier question as to why not live in Blossom Hill in Carlsbad for the same price as Skyranch?

I think everyone here is married, why else would we even bother searching for a home!

I have seen areas of sex offenders myself. I agree, there seem to be a lot. But they are everywhere, apparently even in Poway.

No child from Santee has died at the hands of a child predator here to date. I think at least two children have died in Poway in recent years.

The crime rate out here happens to be one of the lowest in the county.

So I will take my chances here.

You are welcome to your opinions.
