Are rampant in Mission and Pacific Beach. It really is tweaker central and frat house punk central. At first I used to have fun hang out there due to the amount of hot young college age eye candy but now nah I pass. I prefer the mellow beach in OB and north coastal beaches like Torrey Pines State Beach and Encinitas by far. Alas, these areas cost a fortune to live in so think it is out of my budget. Even in a crash if a 2 million home drops by 50 percent I still cant afford it. So looks like I will be stuck more inland for future home purchase unless I become some high powered exec.
