Commute from Vista to Del Mar?

It all matters on the timing. Melrose ave through Carsbad opened up just before we moved and he took that sometimes partway down then cut over to the five. You just have to expect that a long commute is part of living in California.

AMEN! So glad I moved...

Thank you for the replies. We will be down there in a few days for some interviews, so I will drive it to see. We cannot afford the Del Mar area. I looked at Poway and the most we could afford (around 400) looks pretty sketchy. I wonder if there are sketchy areas of Poway. I think I will ask that in another thread. Thanks!
