you probably need to start with colleges:
# SAN DIEGO STATE UNIVERSITY (Full-time enrollment: 25,831; Location: 5500 CAMPANILE DR; Public; Website: www.sdsu.edu;
# SAN DIEGO CITY COLLEGE (FT enrollment: 10,902; Location: 1313 12TH AVE; Public; Website: www.sdccd.net)
# SAN DIEGO MESA COLLEGE (FT enrollment: 10,769; Location: 7250 MESA COLLEGE DR; Public; Website: www.sdccd.net) others, along with local stats on website below.
while you really need a car, you might initially be able to use public transportation, second website below.
other info, ideas for places to rent in subsequent websites below.

My personal recommendation would be:
GROSSMONT COLLEGE (Full-time enrollment: 9,607; Location: 8800 GROSSMONT COLLEGE DR; Public; Website: grossmont.gcccd.cc.ca.us/home/) rent a nearby (excellent area) room for less than $600/mo. decent public transporatation till you get a car

It depends on what do you want to study... but there are a lot of community and state colleges in here... Southwestern College, Grossmont College, San Diego City College, San Diego State University, UCSD...

There is a fairly good public transportation service consisting on the Trolley, buses, and the Coaster, which runs through the coastal area... But still, you NEED a car in San Diego...

Overall... San Diego is an expensive city to live... but you can get lucky and find a good place at a reasonable price...

Best of luck... and Welcome to San Diego...

I did relocate from Virginia to North San Diego county. Brace yourself, the food here is awful. You will miss your Texas food. So eat as much as you can before you leave. Cheap rent- not Texas prices but in San Diego city. Transportation in city is OK and there are lots of colleges in the city. One thing I must say, San Diego city and county are the most stunningly beautiful places in the country.

im from GA. It's different in San Diego, southern San Diego has alot of latinos, northern has almost all whites. Southern is cheaper, but yet not a slum! Thats where I live (chula Vista). Anywhere in the bonita, otay, and eastlake area is nice and close to southwestern collage.

I moved to San Diego from Dallas, TX and I "CraigsListed" the whole thing- Apartment, furniture, bicycle, girlfriend... everything! It is expensive, but I don't own a car since everything is pretty local and I can get by on Trolley and bike so that is something to consider.
