I don’t know anyone in San Diego who is gainfully employed and doesn’t own a car. That says a lot about walkability in San Diego. If you have a good job, good income and don’t need to own a car, then I’d say that you live a walkable area.
[/quote]I know two families.
both live and work in the UTC area. When they need a car they use zipcar.For them, it works. They picked their neighborhood for the infrastructure of public transit, groceries, etc.
but I’ll admit – it’s pretty darn unusual.

ParticipantThat’s probably a good point. It fits our household… I’m still working, Hubby was unemployed (U3) earlier this year, then rehired part time (U6) several months ago… We haven’t had any issues because we always planned so we could live on one salary if we had to. And this past year proved we’d planned correctly.
But – a lot of households NEED 2 incomes – mortgages, car payments, etc consume more than one income… those families are hurting.

I had my first raw oysters at the Old Ox. Wasn’t the PB Brewery across the street? I recall Jose Murpheys having the potential of an all-out bar fight on any given night. Good times.[/quote]
Agreed about Jose Murpheys – but there was a time in the 80’s where all the musicians around town would show up on Sunday afternoon and jam… Plus, often, some of the bands from LA… Members of X showing up to jam with guys from the Beat Farmers… That was REALLY good times.
