What are good areas in San Diego to buy a house? Would be nice to live close to ocean (doesn't have to be several blocks-hort driving distance is OK). I'm looking for a nice neighborhood with good schools.
Thanks for any sugestions

Mission Beach, Ocean Beach and Pacific Beach have a lot of college students living there and it's definately a party zone. La Jolla and Del Mar are really nice and so are all the coastal communities north of there...they're also expensive. I like Encinitas a lot and Leucadia and Cardiff and Solana Beach. Really quiet with that "Endless Summer" kind of feel. Mira Mesa, Rancho Penasquitos and Carmel Valley are close to Torrey Pines Beach, which is between Del Mar and La Jolla, but you won't actually have a view of the water, or anything. Imperial Beach is all the way too the south of San Diego, it's a little qieter than OB, PB and MB, but I'm not sure on the crime statistics. the West end of Clairemont is just inland from PB and the bay, and relatively affordable. I think some properties may even have a Bay view, and pretty safe, but it's an older community - houses built mostly in the 50-60's. Coronado is super nice, but if you're working or going to school it's really inconvenient and again really expensive. Basically, you're ok anywhere North of the I-8 and West of the I5 is going to be more expensive thatn E of I5, but E of I15 is getting a little more inland and a little hotter, but much more affordable....Hope that helps. As far as schools, the Poway Unified School District and the San Dieguito School District are known to be very good public school districts. So, you'd be looking at Penasquitos, Carmel Valley, Encinitas..that area. You can also check out Bonita and the Sweetwater Union School District, I think that's a good district too, and Bonita is a nicer area around Chula Vista.

I moved from the bay area to Arizona for a pair of years and positioned leases 0.5 the fee. each and every thing else develop into more less expensive. Like foodstuff and amenities and autos. i develop into in Phoenix/Scottsdale. the pros are a impressive airport, sturdy thrift shops, pastime possibilities in the tremendous city, sturdy community college equipment, 2 sturdy universities, miles of properly maintained highways without human beings, merely chapparrals, owls and tremendous wasteland panorama. The cons are 100 stages 0.5 the 12 months, warmth pool water, warmth tap water, AC on all evening, quick drivers, Republicans. I dont recognize the cities you pronounced yet I loved Carefree about 20 miles north of Scottsdale. i ought to assert to you that Oregon is larger for households and cheap than San Diego. And no revenues tax, that makes a huge distinction. They get a straightforward volume of rain yet no longer somewhat warm. human beings in Southern Az bypass to Rocky aspect, Mexico to the sea coast.
