Comments on: Arcadia vs Temple City - $630k http://www.arcadiahousingblog.com/2008/06/20/arcadia-vs-temple-city-630k/ Tracking the Arcadia and San Gabriel Valley Housing Market Thu, 08 Jan 2009 22:16:54 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 By: Anonymous http://www.arcadiahousingblog.com/2008/06/20/arcadia-vs-temple-city-630k/#comment-2937 Anonymous Mon, 23 Jun 2008 08:40:16 +0000 http://www.arcadiahousingblog.com/?p=478#comment-2937 Though this comparison is flawed in some ways, it's tough to argue against the fact that you can get more "bang for the buck" in Temple City. In California, home values are largely determined by LOCATION. Arcadia is a more desireable area to live in and raise a family, thus the higher prices.

I would think that the Asian family who don't have kids or not as wealthy will stick with TC if it saves them $150-250k. There are identical McMansions in Arcadia and Temple City.

Arcadia may still have the slight edge in schools, but for amenities certainly any TC resident could just drive north a couple blocks to partake in Arcadia's niceties.

Even with only the Sheriff's office I think Temple City makes a great argument. I've been looking at properties in the area for a bit so I appreciate the insight. <a href="http://www.propertymaps.com/directory/mls/usa" title="PropertyMaps" rel="nofollow">PropertyMaps</a> has a website that has been a lot of help too that shows properties on the MLS with detailed info.

Also Arcadia has its own police force while Temple City has sheriffs office. Temple City's main business drag, Las Tunas Drive, feels like you are in the 60's. I wouldn't say we share the same amenities. Arcadia has far better schools than Temple City. Also Arcadia has its own police force while Temple City has sheriffs office.
