Freelancing from Imperial Beach -experience?

Not sure if this has been asked before, but Median household income is $79,071, which feels about average for the area. Household incomes average around $79,071 in Imperial Beach. Poverty rate is 8.8%, which is pretty low. Average temperature is around 62--F, so the weather is moderate. The city has invested a lot in new development. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. Thanks! I'd say it's better for families than young singles. The weather takes some getting used to.

Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.

I'm a HR manager who relocated here from Boston about 3 years ago. The main reasons were a fresh start and work.

Pros I've experienced:
- Strong job market in several industries
- Good internet infrastructure
- Four distinct seasons

Cons that are real:
- Urban sprawl is real
- Limited shopping options

Financially, we've found it underrated compared to where we came from. Lots of new construction which should help. Groceries are developing, gas is surprisingly good.

Socially, I love the pace of life here. It's not for everyone but it works for us..

The food scene here is tough. Tons of great farm-to-table places. it was the best decision I ever made.
