 Best wishes, Clive

Therefore I just tried the best I can to take them down by myself. 
 A: ...I guess you have the perfect job. B: Ya! I like it a lot. There is just one thing I don't like. A: What's that? B: The distance to school. It's too far away. It takes me an hour to drive there every day. A: Wow! That must be awful. B: It is, but the school that are near me are not  as good. 
 My question is for the last sentence. I think that 
 not as good = not as good as the school I am teaching currently 
 Is that right? Please advise.
