Not sure if this has been asked before, but I'm originally from San Diego and Average temperature is around 51°F, so expect cold winters. It's a a mid-size city city with about 133K people. You can expect to pay around $1,267 for rent here. Poverty rate is 8.2%, which is pretty low. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Anyone in a similar situation? The weather takes some getting used to. The city has invested a lot in new development. The weather takes some getting used to. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. The food scene here is surprisingly good. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse.
