Why would you assume things will go back to sketch now that the bubble has burst?”

Some may say that a “reversion to the mean” argument may answer this question….:)

I am not familiar with “reversion to the mean,” however, vacant store fronts may signify an area that is “reverting.”

And, yes, there are some really great pockets of North Park! Pershing and Granada for instance, have always been nice streets. However, there is still the rest of the neighborhood that surrounds these streets. My BF went to CVS the other day, around 8PM on a weekday, and the cashier had to run out—-there was a drunk guy in the parking lot fighting with some wanna be gang bangers and ramming his truck into random cars. Nice, huh?

This kind of drama is not so bad when you are young, but as you get older, foggetaboutit.

[quote=saiine]Anything east of 30th is sketch, we are a bit south of 30th and run / walk at night a lot. The hookers do not bother you 🙂

I briefly dated a girl who lived down here right out of highschool (10 years ago), and I remember being scared when I would come down here.

The strip on 30th has a great vibe. I hate PB, hate downtown so I guess this decision is more about enjoying where I live as well.

Do not get too caught up in the “vibe.” It is likely only a “temporary vibe” and it is hip right now. I know Northpark from years ago, most recent as 7 years ago….tweakers, ghetto birds, and police. I live in a residential neighborhood in North Park, and yes I do like it. It is not wise to commit to real estate because you like the vibe of the area…that vibe could seriously change. And, as you get older your tolerance for vibes with ghetto become diminished. Look more long term.

Dr RD–thanks so much! If I start drinking with a straw, that will create extra wrinkles around my mouth. Good gawd, it is six of one and half dozen of the other.

It is hard to find a good dentist, a trustworthy one. I would like to see you about the above mentioned issues. How can I find you? I can be reached at [email protected].

Dr RD,
I have some questions too! I am fairly obsessed about my mouth and teeth.

I have been seeing a perio for many years due to gum problems. Been through the surgery in my late 30’s and so far so good. I get my teeth cleaned every 90 days, rain or shine, by the dental hygenist at the perio’s office.

I had a dentist put some type of matching stuff on my 2 front teeth where there were grooves, that was over 5 years ago, and now there are indentations. Can those be replaced? Are they just matching fillings? (there was no decay)

Also, what is your opinion on the one hour whitening? Has it improved? I did it 7 years ago and my teeth didn’t stay white for very long–a few months. I drink a lot of ice tea. (I did give up the red wine for awhile).
