San Diego?
I am planning on attending UC San Diego next year, and I was just wondering what it's like. Anyone from San Diego here? I have a few questions! Is the city a good place to raise a family? Crime rate, bad or good? What's the most affordable housing in or around San Diego? I heard that living in Escondido can be cheaper than in the city. Is this true? What is there to do recreationally? (besides the beach,:)) Thanks ahead of time!
San Diego is a great city. I am a fourth year at UCSD, but have lived in San Diego my whole life. The most afforable place to live AND be near campus would probably be either in the Mira Mesa or Clairemont area. Those areas have very little traffic when coming/going to campus. Escondido is probably slightly more affordable, however there is a lot of traffic coming/going.
I have found San Diego to be a good place for families because it has a lot of activities and places to go. Of course everyone loves the beaches, but there is also a lot of other things to do.
I love going to Petco Park during baseball season. You don't have to be a baseball fan to enjoy it. There is also Seaport Village and Gaslamp Quarter that are great places to take a stroll. Torrey Pines State Park is also a good place to go hiking. The mountains are just an hour drive away. It's always nice to drive up to Julian and buy some apple pies! Not to mention, the desert is also just an hour or two away!
I'm sure you'll have a great first year!
