I'd rather live in a well kept neighborhood with low crime and average schools than a dump of a neighborhood with average crime and stellar schools. I can supplement my child's education, I can't keep out the crime or make my neighbors take care of their homes and yards.
Avalon Park doesn't even have a great high school. Timber Creek got Cs in 2007 and 2009

It's not like Avalon Park is an amazing area to live in, either (my opinion, purely subjective, but I'd rather live in downtown/winter park/dr phillips/windermere over anywhere near East Orlando).

2007 was 5 years ago. Things change with time. My step sister went to timber creek 2003-2007 and yes back then it had a problem. Mostly because it was overcrowded. With the addition of east river high school and rezoning, it is a great school to attend. Do you have to just go find everything I write and bash me? You obviously like west orlando better than east. I think both are good. So can we leave it at that?

What about 2009 when it got a C? You're the one who said it was the best after winter park, not me

Hate to tell you, but the best public schools here still suck. I live in an A rated district and still have to pay for private, which still seems to be behind the rest of the country.
