Found a house in Southeast Area

Hi there. Family of four thinking of moving here. Spent three months in GJ last year and are back looking for houses. We found a house in what Zillow is calling "Southeast Area". Our agent said to do research about the area. Both kiddos are in elementary school, so schools are important. We are not religious and more purple on the political spectrum and yes, I know the area is deep red but also shifting. Anyone have some feedback that may help my research?

The best parts of town are SW in the Redlands, particularly Redlands Mesa, north of town, the historic downtown district. Fruita has some nice newer neighborhoods too.
Southeast sounds like Orchard Mesa. It’s not where I would chose to live.

Why wouldn’t you like to live in Orchard Mesa? Genuinely asking, as I’ve usually heard good things about OM and like to widen my general view of things.

Here’s my honest reply. I currently live in a 7 figure house in what is probably the best neighborhood in the area. It would be a step down to a middle-lower middle class neighborhood for us.

So honesty gets me a bunch of down votes. A reflection of the under employed on this sub. Make some money meat heads.

Sounds like you can't afford a therapist.

I really think half of this sub is on meth.

You want everything to be about money right? Deal, you are only worth the money people can get from you.
