<prompt> Human: People talk about location, location, location but I prefer not to blow another 100K to buy in an area with top schools. Obviously I dont want to buy in a crime neighborhood but would buying in a working blue collar glass be okay? This way I wont need to spend so much on a house and funnel that money towards my 401KIRA?  <response>: Thats an entirely personal decision. If you dont plan to have kids and dont plan to need to resell the property for top dollar, schools probably wont be important to you.
