[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To be clear: only a small part of Maury (10th-13th or so) isn't in far hill east. The bulk of Maury (13th-21st/the river) is hill east and relatively affordable.[/quote]

There is almost no inventory for this area. Secondly this area newly became part of Maury. Third, the far Hill East really begins after 17th. Finally it's not affordable if you want a larger house close to the school. I love these fantasyland real estate posts. [/quote]

All of the Hill is a relatively tight real estate market, but that section of Maury seems to have 5 houses listed right now on Redfin, so I don't think there's uniquely little inventory there. Yes, the 15th-21st area just became part of Maury, but that still means it's part of Maury if you're looking to move now. Yes, if you want a "larger house close to the school," it's not that affordable (although it's still fairly affordable compared to a similarly high spec house in the Brent/Cluster/LT parts of the Hill), but that's partially because of how the Maury zone is shaped. The school itself is much closer to one side (the more expensive side of the zone) and there are houses less than 3 blocks away that aren't zoned to it as a result... while there are houses 8 or 9 blocks away that are. Still, if we're talking about buying a house on the Hill, PP is correct that Maury is actually not the second most expensive zone to get into although it is generally considered the second best elementary school, so is pretty good bang for your buck.[/quote]
