Participantwe rented a detached condo with back-loading garage for about a year. not really a big deal. no issues with garage being blocked ever. the neighborhood has a nice curb appeal with all the garages hidden. parking wasn’t really an issue either.
bottom line, if developers need to pack in homes into zero-lot-line mini-lots, this is a good way to do it.
we rented in another community of homes with zero-lot-line lots with similar sqft but with traditional garage and driveway. I think we actually had more problems with parking because when you pack homes in that closely in traditional front garage and driveway configuration, you end up with no street parking at all. you have a little get-together involving more than 2 guests and you are looking at a lot of folks trying to fight for driveway spots and limited designated parking areas scattered around.

My daughter is doing addition and subtraction up to 100 in her 1st grade class 1/2 way into the school year in her Poway unified school.
I do recall for the 1st 2 weeks they had REALLY easy homework, but I think that’s just to get the kids to remember kindergarden stuff and get their confidence up after the summer.

Overall, NPR is good. It leans ‘left’, but they aren’t liars.
I like the Wall Street Journal. It leans ‘right’. But they aren’t liars.
Fox just makes shit up. Huge difference.[/quote]
well put, my sentiment exactly!

I also mentioned that $1MM probably wouldn’t get us the house/lot we would want in La Jolla. We’d much rather take that money and buy something nicer further inland as well.[/quote]I’ve tried to do search for the reverse, look for a comparable home near the coast. First it is a lot harder to find and in general at least $1 million more than my current appraised value. Not worth it at all IMHO.

The marine layer along the coast would be a bummer to deal with as well; and we *like* cool weather. Some years, you can get 7-8 months a year with almost no sun. That gets old pretty quickly.[/quote]a bit of a threadjack (appologize in advance)…
it isn’t just the 7-8 months of marine layer, but the duration of it. we were at Seaworld the other day and it was at noontime and the sun was still nowhere to be found…
