TOP 3 REASONS WHY I LOVE LIVING IN SAN DIEGO!
#3 Finding YOUR Perfect Small Town Vibe
While over three million people call San Diego County home, there is such a wide diversity of small towns within the County that there’s truly something for everyone here. Being the southernmost coastal region of the continental United States, it’s easy to find your relaxing small town beachy vibe in communities that celebrate an easy going lifestyle like in Carlsbad, Pacific Beach, Del Mar, Solana Beach, Oceanside, and Coronado where you can enjoy world class beaches, great food & drink, and a tremendous sense of community and culture.
At the same time, if you prefer the privacy and beauty of a mountain & nature lifetyle, where you can enjoy cooler weather, rolling hills, hiking, mountain biking and even SNOW in San Diego there are a few options that are affordable, gorgeous and rich in resources. Most out-of-towners are surprised to realize that San Diego has a robust wine country and vineyards in Ramona, Escondido, and even in the coastal town of Encinitas! There are also thousands of miles of horseback riding trails stretching from the desert, all the way to the sea. In fact, it’s not uncommon to see locals riding in Imperial Beach, Fiesta Island and even on the beaches just west of the racetrack in the exclusive community of Del Mar. And speaking of cowboy culture, San Diego is home to four major rodeo events every year so kick off your flip-flops, get on your Wranglers, Ariats & American Hat Company hat on for some legit cowboy culture fun right here in San Diego.
Is big city living more your style? Well, downtown San Diego is an amazing place to call home with great restaurants, shopping, Petco Park for concerts and Padres games. A $7 ferry ride takes you from downtown to Coronado Island in 15 minutes or less where tourists and locals alike can rent bikes to tour the island’s unique coastline, explore downtown Coronado, visit the world famous Hotel Del Coronado, and even catch a glimpse of US Navy SEAL training on the beaches and in the water. Plus, from downtown San Diego, you’re only minutes away from the culturally rich and diverse neighborhoods of Hillcrest, North Park, and Old Town.
#2 Celebrating a Daily Dose of Love, Live and FUN!
San Diego locals are known for fully embracing all that their communities have to offer and of course, why would you not? If you’re not golfing at Torrey Pines, Aviara or any of the 80+ other courses in the County, you’re probably enjoying our beaches, nature trails, wineries, breweries, or various amusement parks. Or, maybe you find yourself emersed in the love and joy of community barbecues, celebrations, and family-oriented events. I love that both leisurely activities and crazy fun times are always right around the corner, all year-round. And how is it that San Diego can be a destination melting pot ALL – THE – TIME? Well, that brings me to…
#1 THE PHENOMENAL WEATHER
Did you know that on average, San Diego's temperatures are over 60 degrees 344 days a year and that our average temperature is an ideally comfy 73 degrees? San Diego averages 267 sunny days a year and has only 21 days of rain. All of this great weather translates directly to a healthy economy, a healthy lifestyle, lots of fun loving thrills, and a great SoCal vibe in whatever San Diego community you choose.
