[quote=bearishgurl]Paramount, I seem to remember that not long ago, YOU were tired of commuting and wanted very much to move closer to your job in SD County. Desirability of areas of So. Riverside County are all contingent upon the daily commute a resident has to make. If the commute is virtually non-existent, say … by bike, as in scaredy cat’s situation, it is totally worth it to live up there. If the daily commute is to another county, God help the homeowner who chooses to move there.

As far as the proposed quarry, I don’t see it as an asset. However, its detriment will affect residents of Temecula (and their property values) in varying degrees. If it will be close to the freeway, the air particles it produces could affect daily commuters who are frequently stopped/slowed down in its vicinity.

The quality of a neighborhood has nothing to do with its age, average sf of house, style of average house, building materials used or “average income” of its homeowners. But it has EVERYTHING to do with an area’s location, the FINANCIAL STABILITY of its property owners and, in some cases, longevity of the average period of homeownership and average amount of outstanding residential property encumbrance.

And I’ve probably lived here as long or longer than you :=)[/quote]

Prior to ‘buying’ my current house in Temecula nearly 10 years ago, I first looked in San Diego. The value proposition just wasn’t there compared to Temecula.

Over the last 6 months I looked hard in San Diego, including rentals. Given my budget and our target areas we were looking at a 1200-1400 sq ft condo/townhome – it just wasn’t going to work.

So after careful analysis, we decided to ‘buy’ a larger home in Temecula. So now I ‘own’ 2 houses in Temecula.

The commute? There’s no denying it gets old. On the other hand the improvements on 15 are a game changer.

I timed it out: From SEH it would take me 30-35 minutes to get to work. From Temecula to work is 40-50 minutes. The difference just wasn’t that great.

Financially, Temecula residents have weathered fairly well largely because of Camp Pendleton.
That’s not to say there hasn’t been lot’s of churn and burn.

I work up there from time to time and the evening traffic is horrendous. That, the smog and high temps, I would prefer to live in a tent in San Diego…[/quote]

Do us all a favor and stay the hell out you dip shit.

I’d be willing to bet the air in Temecula is cleaner than many areas of San Diego.

And your probably not even really from San Diego (and even if you were BFD).

In reading your comments it’s also clear you don’t even know what the hell your talking about.[/quote]

92130 zip code if you care. Next time I am up there I will snap off a pic and post just to compare. IMO not worth the savings living there, but what do you care what I think?

And… no need to get stroppy, just my $0.02 opinion on a public blog.[/quote]

The most sickening part about attitudes like this is the denigration of the United States implicit in the comment.

I have probably lived in San Diego longer than most on this board, same goes for Temecula. For the average family, San Diego has absolutely nothing on Temecula. Nothing.

In fact, I think Temecula is way better than most areas of San Diego. Temecula is in a prettier area than most of San Diego, the schools in Temecula are top notch, wine country..I could go on.

More than anything living in Temecula means one parent can more often than not stay home with the kids without living in a ghetto. Something this country needs more parents to do IMO.
