[quote=Ima Nass]My wife and I thought about moving to San Diego. Drove around some of the so-called villages, and La Jolla …and left. San Diego is just a smaller version of LA, but with more dangerous ramps onto freeways. The Gaslamp District, Italian district, and Old Town just don’t feel real. The atmosphere is more touristy than lived-in. IMHO the Bay area is the only place in California that has a good feel factor. When people don’t feel the need to convince themselves of the greatness, or otherwise of a place then the place is accepted just for what it is …good, or bad. When the reverse is happening it’s because there remains this nagging doubt. It as if soCal is in a tussle with itself over it’s identity.[/quote]
Youra Nass –
Love the username ! It says it all. To each his own.
BTW, you’ve obviously never used the freeway on ramps east of downtown LA towards Pasadena. They have stop signs at the end of the 30-foot long on-ramp and about 15 feet from stop sign to the end of the lane in which to merge. Nothing remotely as dangerous in San Diego.
