[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP here - totally agree that the building of more affordable units in SA has and is creating a real problem. Part of the problem, however, is that there are a lot of people in SA that like it that way.

Yes, people will spend 800k, or even a million for a house in SA. However, that money gets you a lot more than in NA, a heck of a lot more. And, those parents are not sending those kids to neighborhood schools. There are sever new builds and families in my SA neigborhood and none of those kids go to neighborhood. Every single one is at Claremont, Campbell or parochial. They are there long term or they move out before kids go to school.[/quote]

It does not get you a “heck of a lot more”.  There is approximately 150k difference in comps between north and south.[/quote]

You get enough more that if you think all the public schools in the area are basically crappy, whether they are in NA or SA, you're going to choose SA and put your extra money towards private school.[/quote]
