What is it like living in San Diego?

Question

I want to move there, but I need to hear how people think about the little things that make it a good or bad place to live :D

Answer 1

San Diego is truly America's finest city. Bank that.

I could point you to the climate alone and that would be enough to subdue any challenges (it's that great) but there is so much more.  It boast wonderful schools including higher education, the job market is strong, multi-cultural, many things to do, great sports town, beaches to die for, close to the mountains, the cuisine is outrageous, and the babes... did I mention the California girls?  

I don't think I need to say anymore.

The downside.  Expensive.  Everthying cost more. Arnold is always in your pocket trying to squeeze pennies from your nuts.  Traffic is almost enough to make you leave and you can actually count the increase by the week.  

Answer 2

Work hard and can't enjoy it?  Please.  I live 5 mins from the ocean, 45 mis to the mountains, 20 minutes to Mexico, 1.5 to L.A. , 4 hours to Vegas.  That right there is a lot to enjoy.  I lived in the midwest, worked hard, and had to stay inside for 7 months of the year because of snow.  That's no good.

Yup..it's expensive...but soooo worth it.  With some simple changes to my life (so long Star Bucks) I was able to afford it.

Answer 3
