I don’t think it’s a hate. I think several of us are trying to sort through real versus memorex claims made on this thread. To some extent this sort of questioning/digging is being done sort of to followup on some of those claims.[/quote]
Yes.
And PKMAN, yes, summer weather is most certainly uncomfortable. Another point with skyranch, AC will be run for a couple/few months 24 hours a day. No shade, property hit by direct sunlight from dawn to dusk. Road will also increase temp.

ParticipantI could provide a list of fifty points why the community is not for us. No need. If you feel Santee is ‘nicer’ than surrounding areas, than by all means feel such way.
800k will buy much more in Ramona though. Santee is experiencing an identity crisis. People live in Ramona to be secluded and have privacy/freedom. Santee is a country town trying to phase out old, without the sheer space Ramona has. This process will take decades. Just as others who have voiced opinions in ‘negative’ light regarding the area and development, even should the modernization be personally ideal(and it wont), decades down the road we would have lived in a presently undesirable area for what we are looking for. Life is not long enough to sacrifice so much.
For us, 800K to live there is laughable. Just as, paying 800K to live in Ramona would be. I have experience in both areas, and feel comfortable in knowing what we are looking for in a home, area, and community.

Participanttook a trip to skyranch with the missus:
– View in the afternoon facing due north, better than south west or western views.
– Overall view, good, but not great.
– At our age, waiting 10-15 years for Santee to ‘maybe’ come along is not worth it for us.
– Info provided from a daily commuter of the area: The traffic flow on 52 heading west and east during rush hour is not reliable or ideal. Connection to 67 should not alleviate this.
– ‘Feel’ of neighborhood(and we drove/walked entire area)not one of price range places were sold for or are trying to be sold for.
-Costco, best buy, large chain commercial businesses & restaurants, do not enrich a community.
-Santee is Ramona adjacent, not La Jolla. Over looking old run down houses or apartment buildings, properties with multiple cars rotting away in back yard, etc…appreciate the opinions, and Sky ranch Realtor providing info, but this area is not for us-and being familiar with the area and ‘growth’ of last 15 years, we knew this going in, but felt it necessary to at least give a look.
