Great, now I know where to shop if I ever need to live out there.

I'm always trying to find property closer to airports.....

Home prices in most of the San Francisco Bay area
have reached new high's, except in one city, but
there is a catch.

The city of Newark has many people moving out, and many
nice homes for sale after months of being on the market.

Why, you may ask?

It is because of the constant drone of private planes
using the airspace above Newark as their playground.

Most of the flights originate from the Palo Alto airport,
right across the bay, where they have a gentlemens
agreement about not flying over Palo Alto.

Prospective homeowners are told up front about the
"noise condition" they will have to live with, and
many, after hearing plane, after plane, after plane
would never live there at any price.
