ParticipantThere was once a home invasion robbery at a house very close to me. You might remember it because it ended in a high-speed pursuit and the cop car ended up hitting, killing a woman pulling out of the Vons plaza. Strangely the home invaders were charged and convicted of her murder.
That being said, it was a rare type of crime and nobody was hurt until the cops hit the woman. We get some street racers and some vandalism but I’ve lived in much worse places. A couple of banks on MM blvd were knocked over as well, but I doubt it was done by locals.

ParticipantSDR it’s an awesome park. Nice to see taxpayer money go to something like that, even though I don’t have kids (yet). The sunset view from there is awesome, especially with the lights from the houses across the canyon over in RP. Lots of nice people there.
Did you know that field where the park was built used to be a migrant worker camp? I saw them coming and going every day and even met them a few times out there. Have you seen how many show up mornings at the 7-11 for trabajo?

ParticipantHi ibjames,
I can comment. I live off Calle Cristobal which parallels Mira Mesa Blvd. to the north. Mostly Asians live in the area. yesterday I took my dog for a walk at the nice, new park on the North end of Cam. Ruiz, and since it was daytime on a weekday a lot of housewives (to be more pc, home makers?) were there with the babies. There were about 50 Indian women and other desi (no offense, by desi I mean Indian or Pakistani or Bangladeshi etc) and about 20 SE Asian women and me and my (apparently very dangerous, but that’s another story) 10-pound dog. Combining this observation with the other threads discussing how the U.S. is becoming the new “cheap manufacturing” country, I think it’s a safe bet to buy and rent a house in MM when the price comes down like SDR mentioned.
The shopping in the area is so-so: there’s a vons and an Albertson’s and a ralphs, I go to the LA Fitness on Camino Santa Fe, and rumor has it they’re going to put a “Henry’s” market in the plaza where Bally’s used to be. Anyone know anything about this?
I’ve lived in this ‘hood for 10 years, wow! Bought in ’98. It’s VERY convenient for me because I also work at Qualcomm and many other companies in Sorrento Valley. There’s a nice hiking/biking trail off Sorrento Valley Road, and although there is crime it has never affected me aside from having the “H” stolen off my Honda which is apparently a popular thing to do amongst young MMHS kids.
Do you have any specific questions?

ParticipantI guess a killer view means a killer price… I’m hoping to be able to one day land a place with a nice ocean view like that. This one has a view of downtown as well… I’m going to keep my eye on the price (not to buy, just to observe).
