San Diego. Why do you love it?

[admin]

Well, I was in San Diego over the weekend with my toes in the warm ocean enjoying the beach. I saw the sea lions on their little private part of the beach, watched the waves crash against the cliff, and watched the sun set over the Pacific. the quaint shops were nice too, lots of character. In short, it felt good to be on the beach.

I was at a 1959 house off of Genesis and Appleton, and that was a dump. But, the owner made it work. The rooms were painted in bright colors (one was orange). Although it was run-down, it had a “homey” feel to it. The best part: it was 3 miles from the ocean.

Anyway, for those who live in San Diego and would not consider living anywhere else, tell me why you love it? What would you say to someone who asked about relocating there?

I’m not moving right this minute, but after being on the ocean, I’m rethinking my decision to settle in Temecula permanently.

So, convince me.

because if houses in SD are a dump, houses in the bay area uninhabitable.

What I love about San Diego is that you can basically choose whatever lifestyle you want.

You want urban, we got urban. And suburban.

And rural.

Beaches. Fancy and dingy.

Name an ethnicity and we have a community build around it.

I personally choose to have a very “Euro” lifestyle uptown, renting a small place, taking a shuttle to work and walking around town. I love it.

Downsides (what I would warn people about)

It’s not a good place to buy property at the moment.

It catches on fire quite a bit.

Crime in depressed neighborhoods is really bad. Its well worth it to pay a premium to live in a nice area.

Fabulous weather and proximity to ocean, mountains, and desert. That’s pretty much it. The only other place I would consider growing roots in is Greece. A positive cash flow vacation rental on St. John or Kauai is on the list too.

If we move to Temecula, it will be temporary. Of course it is still close enough that the beach becomes the same type of getaway that a mountain camping trip is now – less than an hour drive. I live a couple minutes from the beach now and hardly ever go, not because I don’t want to, but because I don’t have time. Once I’m retired or have much more time to enjoy it, then being at the coast is a requirement.
