[quote=NeetaT]At worst, it’s probably costing you $5,000.00 more per year to live in San Diego than it would cost to live in a less desirable place. Take a deep breath and relax. Don’t leave. Careful what you wish for.[/quote]
Please look at this home in suburban Detroit 12 1/2 mile. Good school district, nice home, lot. The price for 4 beds, 2.5 baths, 1,800 sq ft (with half basement) is listed at 90K, probably a short sale, but comparables have sold for just a little higher. If they haven’t let the Eminem crowd move over from 8 mile, not a bad place if you have a job, telecommuting etc. Airport is 30 miles away, but heard its a ghost town. Most people in SoCal pay that much for a down payment or for two cars. With 20% down, payment is $400+Taxes+expenses($400), and I would assume lower costs for childcare. etc. I think it may add up to more than $5000 per year, but I’m sure someone will double check. This advice is only for those who are priced out of a 911.

BTW, I lived in this house in the 80’s (probably paid same as current price), very decent place for a family. I was lazy and mowed the lawn every two week on this oversized lot that extended 75% back to neighbors lot. It took 4 hours and I would empty bag 25-30 times! “mmm sweet summertime summertime”

[quote=Casca]Why bandy with the intentionally obtuse? If you think government spending is a GDP multiplier, then you are an economic simpleton. Detroit is the reductio ad absurdum of government spending.

One wonders what kind of education leads one to believe, that geographic demarcations between California Counties somehow bind regional economies.[/quote]
Govt spending is more far reaching that we could ever imagine. Besides direct payment for 100% of programs for defense, Medicare, Medical, Social Security, Govt subsidizes MOST researh in this country esp in medical field. I’m not even going to mention the real estate and accounting industries that would turn in to Detroitesque casualties without handout. To do the right thing would turn USA unemployment closer to Detroit’s UR in the short term, so it will never happen.
Every day we find that Government subsidies pay for some program we never imagined. Just guess who pays for the medical residencies in the USA. If you guessed the HMO’s would be paying a share to increase MD supply and lower overall costs, you would be WRONG.

“Medicare, the federal insurance plan for those 65 and over and the disabled, pays about $100,000 a year for each residency, at a total cost to the program of about $9 billion, according to a report filed by the Medicare Payment Advisory Commission in June. Medicare reimbursements for service also take into account the number of residencies each institution maintains.

The funding mechanism was set up in 1965 when the U.S. was about to extend government health coverage to 19 million elderly Americans. As Medicare’s ranks grew — to 45 million people as of the end of last year, according to the advisory commission — the number of residencies was limited to contain spending.”

[quote=Akula1992]patb,

I hear ya. Many moons ago when I lived in Jacksonville, FL I tried that site. IIRC there were about 9,000 female profiles on the site. I did a simple search based on three criteria that I considered personally important to me:

1. College degree
2. Non-smoker
3. No children from a previous relationship

Those three criteria reduced the pool from over 9,000 down to 3 – and non of the three had a picture ;)[/quote]
And people wonder why sdrealtor is not enthralled with FL.

Don’t worry the SD County Treasurer is going around town stating that because there are more parcels, the total property tax revenues are OK even though many homes have been re-adjusted through lower sales or requests.
