CM PRESS # 197


AVERAGE MEDIAN HOME VALUES FOR JULY 2007








Newport Beach...........................$ 1,768,125
Huntington Beach...................... 705,625
Fountain Valley.......................... 705,000
Irvine........................................... 693,187
Costa Mesa................................. 671,250
Santa Ana................................... 578,000


What do the numbers tell us?

Costa Mesa continues to be in the basement with Santa Ana.

Costa Mesa should really be in the # 2 or 3 slot given our closeness to Newport Beach and the fact that we share the same school district and were once closer to that city in quality of life matters.

Why are we now so far from our sister city, Newport Beach? Costa Mesa is overrun with illegal aliens and Newport Beach isn't.

Why is Costa Mesa overrun with illegal aliens? We have slums that attract them and we have charities that make them feel warm and cozy here.

Did you see that one charity has given out more than 1,500 backpacks to "poor" kids in Costa Mesa? "Poor" in our city usually means illegal aliens. As far as we know, no backpacks were given out in Newport Beach.

And, when school starts next month, parents will be told, again, that instead of buying pencils, paper, glue, etc. for their own kids that they have to buy these items and give them to the school which will then give them out to the kids. Why? So, the children of illegal aliens who are living off charity in Costa Mesa won't feel bad.

Folks, a city does not improve by pandering to illegal aliens. We need to (please excuse the cliche) reach for the sky. We need to aim higher that we are right now. We need to be a city that attracts upwardly mobile citizens who work hard and struggle to make better lives for themselves and who value education.

If you took all the illegal aliens from Costa Mesa and moved them to Newport Beach and moved an equal number of Newporters to Costa Mesa, Newport Beach would be as Costa Mesa is today, and Costa Mesa would be as Newport is today.

People matter. It is people who make cities nice or not so nice.

If you're an illegal alien in Costa Mesa, you can get free breakfasts for your kids in school, free day care courtesy of the city government, free bags of groceries, free dental and medical care and much, much more.

Why would you want to move to where you can afford to live if you can supplement your income in so many ways in Costa Mesa? Costa Mesa offers illegal aliens the good life on the backs of citizens.
