sure there are, and they are alot more $ then our mcmansions at $200k. and most are still in crappy school districts. or lofts..... in the same bad school districts.

we call it "white flite" if you don't have kids, and don't go outside much, then the "city" might be for you. but if you wanna raise a family then you move out to teh 'burbs, i thought that was pretty common in most citiees.

'slices example is exactly what we are talking about. Smaller house, more established neighborhood, closer to "town."

The schools are much better in neighborhood B.

Boca Raton doesn't have an "inner city".

then B it would b.

whats the HOA $ in B vs A?
