[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Question: if the schools are not better, and are all the same in one school district, why the big discrepancy in property values close in east county vs close in west county? Hint: it's the schools[/quote] The factors that make the schools "better" have an impact on other aspects of QOL that affects property values. There is less crime in those areas. I think this has changed to some degree more recently, but there are more amenities that more affluent people might want/expect in the west. Also, traditionally NW DC has been more appealing (and had more of the jobs) than NE, so proximity to the former was more appealing -- a factor that again is starting to change somewhat.[/quote]
