[quote=briansd1][quote=outtamojo]AN, is it just me or does it seem like these ” San Diego ain’t Paradise” threads all seem to evolve the same way, with the same characters, the same complaints?[/quote]
And the people defending SD are the same characters too.
I think that SD lacks maturity as a city. Mature cities are confident and can see their short comings.
As a San Diegan, I don’t care if people criticize my city. We are not the best. We could use improvements.
$500k + for an old wood bungalow in San Diego is too much relative to what’s available elsewhere.[/quote]
outtamojo, I totally agree, and it seems like they’re doing themselves a disservice by staying in a city they only 1/2 love, instead of trying to find a city that would make them at least 3/4 love and 1/4 tolerable for its shortcomings.
Brian, what good is it to tell someone to go f* off online. I never said SD have no shortcoming. SD have plenty of shortcomings. I’ll name you a few, lack of a true downtown (i.e. Chicago), lack of a basketball team, and lack of great public transportation. These are the shortcomings I can deal with and they don’t really bother me all that much.
For those who wants more houses built in the 20-40s, most of So.Cal. is not for you. We can’t go back in time and build more of those houses. SD is relatively young and there’s nothing you can do about it.
