California City to the Palmdale airport - that'due south only nuts! If yous're going to consider CA Urban center, might also check out Tehachapi. (The above does not consider schools or the quality of life you lot would have.) |

| There are petty-to-no apartments west of the throughway in Palmdale, which is a large reason why that surface area has stayed equally desirable as it has. $400k will become you something really nice. They have a Macy'due south, a Trader Joes, Best Buy, Barnes & Noble, Target, Dillards and lots of good retail around that area. The cool affair about Palmdale is y'all're only an hour from L.A. and all information technology has to offering (museums, universities, amusement parks, Hollywood, etc) and nearly an 60 minutes and a one-half to Ventura beach or Santa Monica/Malibu beaches. If you're not into the "urban" thing, there'southward plenty of suburbia to exist had locally in Palmdale and Lancaster both. There is lots of really pretty country merely a short drive out of Lancaster/Palmdale ....I tin can think of Kern River, the Sequoias, Eastern Sierra and Bishop, Wrightwood, Los Padres and the Fundamental Coast if y'all caput west; Las Vegas, Laughlin and the Colorado River if you go e. People love to knock Palmdale/Lancaster merely I actually similar that area quite well. |

The view from the master sleeping room balcony of the golf form with the Tehachapis in the distant background is 2d to none. The young man who bought it works at Northrop. Had another offer from a different Northrop employee. The discussion is out that Northrop is ramping up and the neighborhood to move to is West Palmdale, (i.e., Rancho Vista). |

Had some other offer from a different Northrop employee. The word is out that Northrop is ramping upwardly and the neighborhood to move to is West Palmdale, (i.eastward., Rancho Vista). That will somewhen spill over into due west Lancaster too, I'm sure. |

Just for fun, let's pull some comps for your home in Palmdale to recently sold homes in Vista. This 1200 foursquare human foot house just sold in eastern Vista for $429,000: And, here's a comparably sized home to yours (3000 foursquare anxiety) that recently sold in Vista for $792,000: |

I think it would exist wiser to rent for a bit (if only a few months to a year) before buying, should I move upward there. I'll need to continue looking but it seems like the average rents W of the 14 are in the 2000 a month range. Even Eastward of the 14 the average looks most 1800. I suppose it's considering at that place are more houses listed than apartments. Forgive my ignorance but that'southward just the most shocking affair near all of this. I was wrong to assume it was so much cheaper up there. Having more than space is great but it looks like my rent pecker would go up about 500 bucks no thing what. Renting for a while makes some sense if you're not sure you're going to stay in the job or your wife won't be working for a while after your motion. I don't quite get why yous're set against renting a single family house though, especially with a new babe on the manner. What sites are y'all using to practice your research? Every bit someone else mentioned, a quick cheque on Zillow shows me listings for single family unit homes (not apartments ) on Zillow.com on the westward side in Palmdale with rents $1500 (or less in some cases). Or, if you want to stay in an apartment in Palmdale, I am also seeing flat listings on Zillow and Flat.com for $1500 and less, then maybe you need to practice some more research on a few different sites and put some boots in the ground? Perhaps your prospective employer can put you in impact with a few realtors who handle rentals? Last edited by RosieSD; 01-22-2018 at 02:59 AM.. |

| Please don't take this the wrong way, just since information technology does look similar there ARE some rentals in Palmdale/Lancaster and environs for the same (or even less) than what you're paying in Vista, are there maybe OTHER reasons yous're hesitating to take the job in Palmdale? That's OK if at that place are. I'm only tossing the question out there for you to think about. Once more, there is no right or incorrect choice here; it's actually up to you lot and your wife to sit down downward and weigh everything and so brand the decision that seems right for your family at the nowadays time. If either of you take hesitations about the motility, be honest with yourselves most the reasons why; in that location will always exist other job opportunities. Good luck with your decision!

| I was using the realtor.com map to expect at both rents and houses for sale. It showed many more listings than Zillow. I remember my perspective is skewed here. I'm paying way below market value rent where I live because I've been in my apt for a while. Nosotros both dear it here but we're willing to make some trade offs if it makes more financial sense. From what I'grand seeing the cost of living is not different enough to make such a move worth it, regardless of any space gained. That's my own fault for not doing sufficient inquiry prior to making this thread merely I still appreciate the replies. I actually only have an ugly feeling virtually the housing market in general right now. My dad and many of his co-workers have worked in the antelope valley and they have a lot of horror stories nigh the market place upwards there. This is a relevant article- I'll probably merely stay put for a while. If things get bad downwards the road I'll probably look into other states. |

Nosotros both love information technology here but we're willing to make some trade offs if it makes more fiscal sense. From what I'thousand seeing the cost of living is non different enough to make such a movement worth information technology, regardless of whatever infinite gained. That's my ain fault for not doing sufficient research prior to making this thread simply I still capeesh the replies. I actually simply have an ugly feeling well-nigh the housing market in full general right now. My dad and many of his co-workers have worked in the antelope valley and they have a lot of horror stories about the market place up there. This is a relevant article- I'll probably just stay put for a while. If things get bad down the road I'll probably look into other states. That commodity was most likely written before 2010 as its latest reference timeline was 2006. But, if a difference of $500/mo is plenty to influence your decision so peradventure you are not fix. Just some other idea, if you lot buy a house and take a mortgage & interest at $2,000/mo. Your "actual" after tax return monthly payment perhaps but around $one,500/ mo. If you can buy a firm in Vista, I urge you lot to consider. |

| Someone that buys a house in LA or SD is going to exist much more than afflicted by a housing downturn than someone in the AV or Bakersfield. It doesn't brand sense to buy a house if you don't stay in it for roughly 5+ years anyway. So if there was a downturn you would just ride it out and sell. If yous were thinking you lot were gonna buy a business firm in CA and leave after two years, that'south not enough fourth dimension. You sound like you are happy where you are at, and paying below market rent makes it fifty-fifty sweeter. Enjoy life! If I were yous I would effort to save more than to try and make upward for not owning a business firm though. IRA, 401k, something... |
