I chose to retire in San Diego 6 years ago. I absolutely love it. I don't like snow or extreme heat. My home is on 1/2 acre. (Mt. Helix) 15-20 minutes to everything. I am so happy with my choice. My house has value has doubled value in 6 short years! I stay home on the weekends & go out during the week, when traffic is light. I came here from Cupertino, CA (Silicon Valley) and lived in Monterey/Pacific Grove for a decade. I love all of California!
Wow that is incredible. You had really great timing! Thank you also for joining the livestream. If you have any questions and would like to chat about it, feel free to send me an email to set up a time :-) Danny.Quesada@exprealty.com
I've lived here my entire adult life since 19. I can't afford to retire here. San Diego is for people who are very wealthy, young or wealthy and old period. If you move here and are middle class or lower middle class, you will struggle constantly. I speak from experience.
to be honest the lack of seasons is exactly what's drawing me to san diego. Im from the other sd (south dakota) and I absolutely hate winter here. I have horses and my workplace is currently a barn a few miles from me, and trust me after feeding horses and cleaning stalls in -20 degree weather the winterlessness would be welcomed.
@@sprklyhanse5729 hello I’m born and raised San Diego I’m looking to move to South Dakota in a year. Sioux Falls area or Harrisburg how difficult do you think the snow or cold will be to adjust to. Keep in mind all I know is sunny California weather. I’m tired of always sunny days we never get 4 seasons it sucks I would like to experience it but I also realize cold to me is 60 degrees lol that’s probably your tank top and shorts weather In South Dakota.
@@mando2.049 I mean it will definitely be an adjustment for you. Before you decide to commit for sure, you should probably try to come out around January-March because that's when we tend to be the coldest. The climate, terrain, and people are pretty different depending on what side of the river you're on, but the coldest months should still fall into January-March regardless. And yeah, 60 is definitely tank top weather for us, since SD likes the extremes for temperature. It can get around 100 or higher in the summer and -20 in the winter, so after a cold snap even 20 is t-shirt weather to walk in an out of stores. With my horses and outside job, by the time I'm done outside my eyelashes are freezing together and my eyebrows are crusted with ice from my breath. I don't think it does that in the time it takes to walk from a car to a building though, so unless you get livestock or work outside it shouldn't be much of an issue.
@@mando2.049 not sure if you’ve moved or visited yet, but South Dakota gets some pretty gnarly winters.. think extended periods of subzero air temp with added wind chill making it feel -20 to -30 or worse.. then in the summer the humidity is usually high and can get into the 90s. I am from there, and have lived all over, and can easily say sodak (and North Dakota) have some of the most unforgiving seasons. People can seem to be fairly ignorant about world / other cultures since other than native Americans there is not much diversity.. that is getting better in Sioux Falls (biggest city which Harrisburg borders), but it’s pretty jarring some of the thoughts and beliefs some South Dakotans have. They are generally nice and helpful (like most places in the states), but very small town mentality. I agree with the original commenter.. it’s worth a visit esp during winter months and maybe in august.. for example last week my dad who lives in Pierre, SD just got 14in of snow. 😳 in April-over a foot of snow. Overall, sodak can be a great place if you are looking for a slower pace with more small town mentality. :) Be well++
The only one that I agreed with you is the cost of living. All the other reasons were pretty much petty reasons. Everywhere you go you're going to run into the same issues living in a big city area. But hey I get it, you don't want more people moving to San Diego for your personal reasons. Lol
I have never heard anyone says anything bad about San Diego. Like a lot of people say they would live there if it was affordable. I visit there at least once a year. It is heaven. I’ll be there is 2 weeks 🎉
Hey Danny found u through Jaycation. Im born & raised in LA, thanx for this honest video on San Diego, we have all those same things here. And let's not forget our constant drought situation and i wish public transportation were better, i hate driving everywhere. But with all that, i love it, it's so beautiful, i love all the different things to do, the beach, the different cultures and the weather can't be beat. No snow, no crazy temps or humidity.
San Diego is the BEST! I moved here from the East Coast when I was 29, sight unseen, and I've been in love with it ever since! I thought the headline of this video was a joke so I clicked on it for a good laugh. If you're thinking about moving or visiting here, no matter where you're from, you're going to absolutely love it! GO!
When you are going through difficult times in your life, don’t isolate yourself. There are people who have been through what you might be facing right now and they overcame it. Don’t push people away, surround yourself with people who are spiritually mature and get the help that you need. Isolation when you are in pain and don’t know if there’s a way out is dangerous and that’s why we have suicide cases. Listen, there’s nothing that you can be facing that God is not able to solve for with God nothing is impossible. Hold on. Jesus loves you.
Chula Vista and Imperial Beach has more affordable housing. Condos and nice mobile home parks are more affordable. An easy trip to downtown or the ocean. I like the hundreds of Meetups to get out and get acquainted with a few people in whatever you are interested in. The climate is beautiful, parks are fantastic, and museums have free day once a week for residents. Food is varied, and farmers markets. Great thrift stores and resale places, including luxury furniture.
The so called traffic in San Diego is mostly people driving slow against the flow of traffic...its bizarre....they create this traffic issue, out of weirdness and, or boredom...lol....especially north county...merging on the Freeway doing 40 mph is not the best idea...San Diego is beautiful, but not much else,it lacks culture, diversity, character, and bland food...biggest thing going is tacos...lol...its a generic mundane place for the well off who are not experienced with other environments.... To put it mildly it's a prejudice place if your not the right color....over priced underwhelming housing market....the worst housing.....DON'T MOVE TO SAN DIEGO!!....LOL
@@know973 As a POC with my own diverse culture I would have to respectfully disagree. Perhaps I can share a few areas in my next video that showcase culture. What part of SD are you from?
I loved San Diego, I didn't notice any traffic, I thought it was exceptionally quiet ... I'm currently in PNW and it's horrible up here ... Traffic jams r all the time even the weekends., No good food, people r shitty, no culture, not events, no anything it's just boring. The rainy season is from October to end of June ... It's the worst but most beautiful state I have ever lived in... It's one big small town.. this state has been left behind and prices r through the roof, $ 100 for 2 sandwiches and 2 beers, $ 700k for a decent regular house in a shit part of town.
I lived in San Diego for half of my life, beginning the mid-80's. I was there when houses were affordable, the lifestyle was laid back, and there was always a place to park. Decades ago the powers to be decided that we needed more tourists. They were so worshiped that we, the folks who lived there and paid taxes, were becoming second class citizens in our our own town. Traffic, especially on the weekends, was ridiculous..
Homelessness, crime, rents through the roof, Democrat lockdown, heavy traffic, no parking, low overall wages, unless you are in a profession, over regulation on small business to name a few reasons. Highest energy and water rates in the country along with gasoline prices!
I moved to San Diego when I was 8 in 1998 and lived there til 2021. I do not recognize the city anymore. It used to be a small-ish and laid back city and was a hidden gem compared to LA and San Francisco. Now it’s super bougie and unaffordable with so many super wealthy transplants coming in and jacking up real estate prices. The working class military town feel has diminished so much. I’d love to move back but given political and demographic shifts in the state of California as a whole I don’t think I’ll ever be able to move back anytime soon.
I appreciate this video because it points out some of the growling pains we have as a city, it addresses the people moving in from all over even though people don’t want to talk about it, and it also addresses the negativity from people who moved away or never even been here. To each their own! ✌🏽
Thank you for a very informative video as I looking to relocate to San Diego as I have lived in Vegas for over 10 years now and the cost of living, the crime and the reckless drivers on a daily basis. Vegas is no cheaper than Las Vegas since the pandemic with remote workers.
I don't understand why San Diego cant support teams in baseball, football, hockey, basketball, and a soccer team. if they can support a baseball team they should be able to support the other major sports, there are enough people.
My 2 negatives to live here are cost of living & number of homeless living on the sidewalks & even in Balboa Park.I watch people steal meals from the buffet at Whole Foods, walk past security guard & sit outside at a table and enjoy their free meal...shocks me every time I see it. I pay more than at Whole Foods Bryant Pk, NYC while some pay nothing. Same at nearby CVS, the stealing is out of control!
The City, County and Port District have worked tirelessly over the last 30 years to destroy the charm, beauty and accessibility of this once great City and County. Road diets have removed valuable parking while redesigned parks are less and less visitor friendly. Local attractions have become overcrowded and the beach areas are now littered with unsightly rental scooters and street vendors.
I hear a lot of people say that San Diego is a lot slower paced and it has way too many breweries and that it has a lot of potential, but it’s hella boring. I’m from LA and the traffic is a different animal, but it gets really active out there. When it comes to natural disasters, it is concerning because I don’t want to be around areas that are dry like you mentioned and I don’t want to get caught up with the wildfires. When it comes to earthquakes, I currently live in Beaumont and we are literally on the San Andreas fault line so we deal with frequent earthquakes out here. Another concern is people because I do want to connect myself with entrepreneurs and small business owners that can help me elevate my game in consulting and in personal training. When it comes to sports teams, I doesn’t concern me because I’m an LA sports team supporter except football, I’m a Patriots fan. But I love my Dodgers and Lakers! But overall great content, I do plan on living out in SD maybe in the next 3-5 years, I just don’t know the conditions and what it’ll be like around that time. I don’t know if it’ll be more packed or the cost of living will get even higher. Maybe considering elsewhere, what’s your take?
Over the long term I think more and more people will move to San Diego over time. It's been undervalued for a long time and prior to the housing shortage was very reasonable - now its starting to have happen when you compare it up North. Although it does seem expensive now I believe it has ways to go over the next 10-15 years as they are rolling out all these new developments, companies start relocating, etc.
@@MovingtoSanDiego278 for sure! Like I said before, I do plan on living out there and the reason why I love SD is because of it’s authenticity and great food, specifically their California burritos! I was from LA, and the vibes changed a lot because there’s so many outsiders moving in and the people moving out of LA relocate to the IE where it’s more peaceful. By that time I’ll be in my early 30’s and I want to be thinking more long-term when investing in real estate and possibly raising a family.
@@valdeeezy6194 it’s all relative really. San Diego had bad traffic sometimes, but of all the places I’ve lived for example, it was far worse almost everywhere else.
Umm....we have nowhere near the traffic la does. It's our bottleneck on/off ramps that cause traffic. Also, we have a crapload of air bnbs. Less air bnbs = more housing. Also, who doesnt move here because we dont have sports teams...umm..padres..petco park kicks ass. This guy is off. Natural disasters??? Um maybe in julian or Campo. Not in sd. Omg did u seriously bring up earthquakes????🤣 We aren't slow. Did u just move here dude? At the beach, but not elsewhere.
I love San Diego. But there is a major homeless problem in downtown San Diego and the beach areas. Might not bother some but theres a alot of tent city if peoples not aware.
Hi Darwin, South East San Diego and East San Diego would be my recommended start. At $1650 most areas that are central or close to the water are going to be closer to $2200-$2700 for a 2 bedroom. Each area will have its own averages.
San Diego is more of a retirement city, you left out all those homeless last time i was there tons of homeless people in that downtown area , i stayed at the Gas lamp hotel for the weekend. i walked around and looked i suppose im a looki lue.. but i walked from downtown San Diego to North Park it was a walk but i could do it then ...
@@MovingtoSanDiego278 i came to san diego in the late 80s did not see any homeless people and at hordon plaza downtown you could take pictures in front of the plaza. when i returned back there in 1996 it was a total change . there are some ruff homeless people out there, there are some really good homeless people that had some bad things happen in their life that made them have no home my mom and i was homeless when i was a teen i will never forget the feeling of no place to go . but your videos are a light up . there is another guy that have driving videos on youtube he do most all states of the union and some other countries he do canada your the passenger he just drive its a adventure.. Later Danny..
If are a Republican Trumpster then you are outnumbered 8 to 1. We love racial diversity, respect LBTG, women, and are very progressive. Yes, housing is expensive and you do need a decent job to enjoy life here.
Thanks! In our search for inclusion, I find San Diego to be accepting of all political backgrounds, ideologies, personalities, etc. I do believe there are things people need to work on, but thats nothing the beaches/weather can't fix! Thank you for your watching! 😀
To the person reading this, you are who God says you are. You are made in the image of God, The Creator of heaven and earth. Because of His love for you and I, He sent His only Son Jesus Christ to die for you so that you can have everlasting life and not go to hell. Jesus Christ arose from the dead, He is alive and is the only Messiah, the King of kings, the Beginning and the End. Jesus Christ is the Savior of the whole world. Accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, invite Him into your heart/life today. Wherever you are, He can hear you for He is everywhere. Remember Jesus Christ is the ONLY way to God the Father. Jesus loves you sooooo much so that He gave His life for you. You are valuable...You are loved.

Hi Danny any info on 2 bedrooms for about 1650 ? Moving from Honolulu . Having hard time finding any units . Darwin
try Chula Vista. It is great!
Hi Darwin, South East San Diego and East San Diego would be my recommended start. At $1650 most areas that are central or close to the water are going to be closer to $2200-$2700 for a 2 bedroom. Each area will have its own averages.
great recommendation!
Awesome content Danny. Valuable info! Hoping to arrive there next month 🕺🏻🕺🏻 Will definitely reach out 😉 🤜🏼🤛🏼
Woohoo! Almost here, can't wait!
San Diego is more of a retirement city, you left out all those homeless last time i was there tons of homeless people in that downtown area , i stayed at the Gas lamp hotel for the weekend. i walked around and looked i suppose im a looki lue.. but i walked from downtown San Diego to North Park it was a walk but i could do it then ...
Yes unfortunately its a topic I have to avoid theres good people in bad situations out there and would hate to group them as "one"
@@MovingtoSanDiego278 i came to san diego in the late 80s did not see any homeless people and at hordon plaza downtown you could take pictures in front of the plaza. when i returned back there in 1996 it was a total change . there are some ruff homeless people out there, there are some really good homeless people that had some bad things happen in their life that made them have no home my mom and i was homeless when i was a teen i will never forget the feeling of no place to go . but your videos are a light up . there is another guy that have driving videos on youtube he do most all states of the union and some other countries he do canada your the passenger he just drive its a adventure.. Later Danny..
Very nice info
Always appreciate it Mr. Ken!
When are you doing videos on North County S.D?
Very very soon! I grew up in North County and has soooo much. Anything specific you'd like highlighted?
@@MovingtoSanDiego278 Nice what are did you grow up in?
A Oceanside or San Marcos video would be informative 👍
@@ericl6816 Carlsbad/Oceanside area!
You got it my man. Expect something in the next few weeks highlighting North County!
If are a Republican Trumpster then you are outnumbered 8 to 1. We love racial diversity, respect LBTG, women, and are very progressive. Yes, housing is expensive and you do need a decent job to enjoy life here.
Thanks! In our search for inclusion, I find San Diego to be accepting of all political backgrounds, ideologies, personalities, etc. I do believe there are things people need to work on, but thats nothing the beaches/weather can't fix!
Thank you for your watching! 😀
The water looks pretty dirty…
To the person reading this, you are who God says you are. You are made in the image of God, The Creator of heaven and earth. Because of His love for you and I, He sent His only Son Jesus Christ to die for you so that you can have everlasting life and not go to hell. Jesus Christ arose from the dead, He is alive and is the only Messiah, the King of kings, the Beginning and the End. Jesus Christ is the Savior of the whole world. Accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, invite Him into your heart/life today. Wherever you are, He can hear you for He is everywhere. Remember Jesus Christ is the ONLY way to God the Father. Jesus loves you sooooo much so that He gave His life for you. You are valuable...You are loved.
