[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would be more inclined to pick the better school and make due with a lesser [b]house [/b]but my husband and I recently have fallen in love with a neighborhood for reasons beyond just the homes. The entire culture of the neighborhood is exactly the kind of community we'd like to raise our kids in and it would make it easier for us to raise a large family out here, by ourselves, away from our own families. The public schools aren't great, not good even, BUT there's an excellent church school we can afford and there are magnet programs within the school district that are quite good. So, we feel confident we can offer our kids a good education, either through the church school or the magnets if we were lucky enough to win the lottery, in that neighborhood. So, we're going for it. If it turns out to be a disaster, we'll move to a better school district in a few years. [/quote] Typos - sorry. Fixed a few. OP, in your situation, not being able to afford any private options, I would not gamble on winning a magnet lottery. I'd focus on buying in a good school district. [/quote]
