westwood sucks on housing.
probably you can find something in sharon, but can't find any reasonable
middle pricing houses around westwood like 600-800k.
Currently living in Westwood, but hate it (can not upgrade)

Thanks for your first hand info..
It seems to me that Sharon has more Asian/Chinese and diversified housing
stock. While Westwood is more homogeneous White, and housing is more
expensive, it seems that Westwood is very steady in terms of real estate
value.
Besides upgrade, what else you dislike Westwood? I know some towns in
MetroWest are quite snobbish.That is the reason Chinese prefer Lexington and
Newton etc.

Sharon's property tax is too high which I doesn't like.
That's why I avoided Acton, Wayland, Sharon ...

I guess that you mean real estate tax rate.
Sharon is more affordable than Westwood price wise.

Westwood does have good elementary schools.
But it does not matter that much.

Need to see the high property tax in other perspective.
Think about it, how much you pay extra for the property tax? It will not be
that much if you account in the price difference and quality of a better
life because of bigger nicer house. Of course, house appreciation is
different story.

Thanks for all the good discussion.
I would like know if it is easy for kids to find friend in a town like
Westwood. That is something I need to consider.

Westwood is hot on the list of Chinese families.
A lot of people moving in, so should not be a problem finding Chinese play
mates or good families to hang out for yourself.
As far as for White families, it is ok, not particular bad or good for
Chinese.

The million dollar house market is very soft everywhere. In the half million
to 1 million range, those desirable Boston suburbs are very stable. I do
not see middle range house in Newton (500-800 thousand $) lose much value.

Right.
but if you look at something from 600k-900k, it becomes so hard.
Downey strict does not make it harder or easier.
As matter of fact, elementary schools not matter much, as I said it before.

Dover情况有点特别。
平均家庭收入接近Weston,但是交通就不太方便。
经济不好,million house在哪儿都不太好卖。
低端的房子太少,只有高压线附近和Condo在工薪阶层承受范围。
这样的区房子不降才怪。

博士说的是。 Dover的区虽好,交通太不方便,特别是对正常上班的双职工来说。
westwood的交通方
便,房子在60-90w内要比dover/sherbon贵些。

300刀不算贵,就叫人作吧。不过这个东西也就是买玻璃棉,放在ceiling上,没有什么
技术含量,
就是比较累。各楼上有些地方伸展不开。

另外,窗户上有水气没关系,只要中间没有就可以了。
