    San Mateo 3 or San Remo 1?

    Good summary. I would like to add ( something important to us): LA close to hoag hospital - 2 miles much closer to beach - 7 miles much closer to the state park on 133 - we mountain bike there you can feel the ocean breeze SG I did field test- driving to 405 from SG during avg rush hours...

    You are a Chinese immigrant, inherited a million dollars, just moved to Irvine

    a vxx call spread makes a lot sense now. VXX Oct 12-19 call spread.

    We also looked at SG and liked it there. SG is way better than LA. Much quieter. The reason we bought LA instead is only for high school and convenience.

    San Mateo 3 or San Remo 1?

    Trojan is right. have not heard people smelled anything so far. But the concern is the landfill will run for another 40 years to 2050. Who knows how it will smell in 10,15 years. Hopefully nothing but as trash piles up, get more worried.

    San Mateo 3 or San Remo 1?

    I would say one positive is it is not closed to landfill or jail or sand canyon truck trail. very close to costco and spectrum, easy for us to go shopping and seeing movies. A lot of IT firm and some hospital close by, heard one QH agent told me easier to rent out to doctors ( phd or real...

    "Lambert Ranch has luxury - the floor plans are refreshing. " LR also enjoy landfill breeze. That is very luxury indeed. In the past, people pay to get closer to ocean. Today people pay to get closer to landfill.

    But.... do you think local roads busy like those in Irvine ( Culver, Jeffrey, Sand Canyon) have less pollution than freeway??? Your assumption is only freeway has pollution.  Just look at how many cars those main roads in Irvine have.

    Looking for view home

    100 treehouse is among worse locations in Quail hill. If you go to 133 treehouse which I went in before, it is so much quieter. I have driven around in Quail Hill a lot just to check out the noises when I was shopping for a house. Many part of Quail Hill is very nice. With the price range...

    Looking for view home

    Quail hill is pretty quiet actually. Have you ever been to the single family homes there yourself?  With 405 0.8 mile away is much quieter than have Culver or Jeffrey 0.2 mile from your house. For views, forget about irvine, buddy. Just do yourself a favor and check out Crystal Cove lots...
