My favorite in San Diego

Housing and infrastructure is good

Seems alright enough

26/06/2008 11:48:41 -07:00

State street seems like a great place to live but for a vacationer that is all it really was. A great place if you were living there. Not really the place you want to go check out if you are looking for a touristy kind of place. State Street was very clean and friendly though!

Nothing jaw dropping

26/06/2008 11:45:18 -07:00

There is nothing super exciting here. There are like ever where it seems in San Diego places to stay, Hotels and motels, there are some places to eat, and a few places to shop. The people are nice and no one seemed to mind me walking my dog up and down J street so that was nice.

Very nice place to go!

26/06/2008 11:41:37 -07:00

Park blvd. is definitely a nice place to go if you are in San Diego. If you are bored you should just hope in the car and drive along Park blvd. the scenery is very nice and it is not very crowded like other places in San Diego can get. There is not a lot of different things to do once you are there...

Nothing to exciting....

26/06/2008 11:34:58 -07:00

Like I said nothing to exciting there are a few bars and restaurants also a few places to shop but there are better places to go if that is what you want. The people seem nice enough though. And the area didn’t seem bad either. It’s a good place if you want to stay somewhere nice but are planning o...

Close enough to down town

26/06/2008 11:26:55 -07:00

The best thing I can say is it is close to downtown so if that's what you want then 10th ave. is great. There is also a lot of bars and cocktail bars if you want to go out at night. 10th ave. is much better for the nightlife because that is pretty much all there is to do there.

Mostly just places to stay

26/06/2008 11:22:49 -07:00

Front Street really does not have that much going on. Mostly it is just apartments. Although it was the only place I found a bank right around there. There is also a lot of Hotels and Motels.

Pretty Drive in San Diego!

Quiet neighborhood close to SDSU

22/06/2008 23:42:33 -07:00

This street has many homes that are or were inhabited by families/couples. Some houses are rented out to SDSU students, but there are still a good number of families living in the area. It is a semi-quiet area, because the older residents don't have a whole lot of patience for loud college students....

Nice spacey place to live

22/06/2008 23:33:03 -07:00

This is a nice place to live, in a canyon. It is definitely in the outdoors, with hills all around it, even just right across the parking lot from the apartments. It's decently priced, and has a great location compared to the highway. It's a little annoying that it's on one side of an expressway-typ...

Great place to live to have a good college experience

22/06/2008 23:24:25 -07:00

This street is a very busy street, full of college kids, especially out and about on Thurs-Sat nights. Because of that, it is definitely a loud street, mostly of drunk girls screaming and doing stupid things. It can be entertaining to watch, but annoying if you have a room with a window on the stree...

Primary commercial corridor

15/05/2008 14:08:48 -07:00

It starts way out east in La Mesa. It goes through the San Diego State neighborhoods. It goes through some rougher, low-income neighborhoods. It goes through the up and coming North Park. It goes through the hipster-infested gayborhood of Hillcrest, and finally ends in the old, beautiful Mission...

Charming older neighborhood

15/05/2008 13:49:06 -07:00

Mountain View Drive in San Diego is a long, windy street that follows the curve of Mission Valley on it's southern plateau. The entire stretch of road is covered with older homes. On the north side of the street, the homes are built on the edge of the valley. On the south side, they are similarly...

Years in the making

15/05/2008 13:43:18 -07:00

11th Ave runs more or less north/south from the southern edge of Mission Valley, past Balboa Park and into the East Village neighborhood of Downtown. Great services, including trolley, grocery and bars and restaurants surround, but it is also the one-way street that leads from PetCo Park baseball s...

Nice if you want to live in a quiet area where cops are called if you are loud.

22/06/2008 23:14:07 -07:00

Adobe Falls Rd is located in the canyon below SDSU. It's kind of out on its own, a long walk to anything you'd want to go to. There is a trolley station close by, but it's about a 25 minute walk to get there. There are stores and gas stations up the hill, but they are not within walking distance if...

Residential Arterial Street

15/05/2008 14:41:42 -07:00

Twain is an arterial route that connects the suburban neighborhoods of Grantville and Allied Gardens with the commercial areas on either side of them. Using Twain, residents of these neighborhoods gain access to many of the local services they need. Twain is a long, steep hill running to the East.

Townhomes on the edge of the park

15/05/2008 14:37:11 -07:00

Rainswept Lane is home to a small subdivision of newer townhomes that back up to Mission Trails Regional Park. The good thing about this is that your back yard extends over acres of recreational land with trails for bikes, hiking, and rock climbing. The bad news is that coyotes and wildfires will...

Tour of San Diego Eastern Suburbs

15/05/2008 14:32:49 -07:00

Navajo Road is a busy thoroughfare cutting through many of San Diego's eastern suburbs. Much of it is lined with strip malls, where you will be able to find services and retailers ideal for serving the families who live nearby. Aside from the ubiquitous southern california strip mall, there are a...

It's the Court that makes this street nice

15/05/2008 14:24:03 -07:00

This is your basic San Diego suburban cul-de-sac. All of the homes are large, multi-story, single-family houses with yards and big garages. Years ago, the owners of the homes surrounding the canyon behind the cul-de-sac got together and bought the canyon land from the city, thus preserving the qui...

Looks like the suburbs, cross the bridge into the city

15/05/2008 13:39:15 -07:00

Hayes Avenue is truly the best of all worlds. Just two blocks from Hillcrest and all the amenities of that great neighborhood, you have to walk across the pedestrian bridge to get there. This means that you can live in a quiet, safe, pretty, clean, charming old neighborhood, and still walk less th...

The best of urban living in San Diego

15/05/2008 13:32:35 -07:00

4th Ave runs from the Southern edge of Mission Valley through Hillcrest, Banker's Hill, Downtown, the Gaslamp and ends at the waterfront Convention center. Most of the street is a great combination of restaurants and local services, along with office space and rental/owned housing. No matter where...

Ozzie and Harriet Live on Danbury Way

15/05/2008 13:27:42 -07:00

This neighborhood is stable, safe, and quiet. There is very low turnover in the homes, so most of the families have lived there for a long time. It's easy to see which houses have been renovated/remodeled, since it was a new development in the 50's. A great place to settle down, if you are the su...

what a great drive

14/05/2008 22:34:55 -07:00

A winding road through hills covered in California scrub (sage?) with few houses and glimpses of the ocean here and there. Shame it had to end and shame we had to share it with anyone (just a few, though). It was early morning on a weekend as the sun was rising, before everyone decided to turn San...

too many damned busses

14/05/2008 22:25:15 -07:00

One is too many, if you get stuck behind it in traffic in a convertible. The existence of public transportation is nice, but sucking hot exhaust on a hot day is unpleasant no matter what. We were almost tempted to put the roof up and crank on the air conditioner. Almost, but not quite.

Looks l...

normal is an odd place

14/05/2008 22:19:18 -07:00

It's a couple of one-way streets with a really wide median (like a narrow strip of drab and empty park) and does a weird jag in the middle where right around Polk it sort of stops being "Normal" for a bit and then rejoins "Normal," which for some reason is coming from the west. There's gotta be a s...

ah, the hospital

14/05/2008 22:10:31 -07:00

The place to go if you, say, slice your shin open on a bit of beach crud and need stitches. The nurses were busy, and the doctors not so friendly. We waited a while to get service, even though newly arrived patients in the ER cringed at the blood caked on and oozing through my friend's jeans. But...

what you see when you get off at the wrong exit

14/05/2008 22:04:29 -07:00

It's a quiet street, at least the north end of it was. Quiet, though, was a bad sign for us. We turned around when we realized we'd gotten off the 8 at the wrong place and turned down the wrong street. There's an apartment complex and then a whole lot of nothing, or at least that's what it seemed...

my god, it's full of students

14/05/2008 21:58:25 -07:00

Not that that's a bad thing. They tend to gather places where there's fun to be had, and this isn't really an exception. Bars and clubs and coffee house-type hangouts abound. Perhaps there's an overabundance, but there certainly are a lot of students. Good pace to stop for a bite if you're headed...

Traffic. Solid traffic.

14/05/2008 21:52:38 -07:00

The view over the little lakey type marina thing was a bit lame compared to the view of the ocean on the west side. It's not as much fun to watch rich people sail boats as it is to see the ocean (particularly for an AZ native). We did get to see a few boats pass as we went over the bridge to the m...

from the mall to the beach

14/05/2008 21:37:14 -07:00

It's a bit busy because it's one of the main thoroughfares (if you can call a four-lane street a "thoroughfare," though everything does seem connected to it) in the area. The mall at the east-ish end (Midway Towne Center, with the pretentious "e" on the end of "Town") isn't half bad for shopping,...

I would have sworn it was "Abbot"

14/05/2008 21:29:02 -07:00

The beach. The reason, I think, San Diego exists. This one's unimaginatively called "Ocean Beach" but it's still pretty nice: well kept, with green space as well as sand. But there's a break water that extends west from the north end of the beach. As such swimming there is more like going into a...

a short walk on a long pier

14/05/2008 21:18:00 -07:00

It's a very residential street and certainly looks like an expensive place to live, being so close to a beach and beach-front parks. I only was there during the day on the weekend and it certainly seemed like a pretty busy area. Oh, and the walk down the pier is pretty uneventful. The view of the...

Quimby Street: A place to live

14/05/2008 12:21:56 -07:00

Quimby Street has mostly the residential part of the city. Though it is considered as the one of the most quietest places but there are some factors which go against it. one is that a school is in very close proximity to the neighborhood. The second factor is the airport which is located very close...

Del Monte Avenue: Close to the Pacific ocean

14/05/2008 11:57:49 -07:00

The Del Monte Avenue is quite close to the pacific ocean. Though a bit far you can have a direct view to the sea. This place is very quite with very little traffic. You just have to walk down a few steps to reach the sea area. Though the place is quite expensive but if you can afford to buy a house...

Sunset Cliffs Boulevard: the place you would want to be!

Noisy Surfer street

11/05/2008 12:33:11 -07:00

Grand Avenue Is the main drag in Pacific Beach. The traffic can e horrible and it is filled with college kids who are often very rowdy. They will run out in front of your car so you should be very careful. Pacific Beach is known for it's "low culture" of beach bars and hoochie shopping stores.

If you feel like being daring you might drive through this area in you 100+ thousand dollar car and see how long it takes you to get it stolen. On the plus side there is a few gas stations on this street that area easy to get to from the freeway. theres also a pretty good taco shop on the corner of...

A questionable Street

09/05/2008 20:16:24 -07:00

This is a very odd place on one side you have some of the worst locations to live in san diego and on the other there are some quite livable middle class areas. Thats the biggest downside to the street, second being the high traffic which makes it pretty hard to live on directly. On the positive sid...

a nice place to live

08/05/2008 23:21:36 -07:00

This is a nice quiet place to live and there are mostly married couples. Many of them have kids and it is nice to see that most of the parents here do a great job to keep their kids under control. During the day many of the mothers take their kids out for walks and the people in the neighborhood lov...

community oriented place

08/05/2008 23:15:53 -07:00

this place is great if you like going outside and seeing your neighbors all of the time. There are lots of activities that go on and most of the people here are friendly and open to meeting new people. As far as communities go, I have seen much worse, and again, if you really like not having a whole...

A little boring, but safe.

08/05/2008 23:11:33 -07:00

This is probably one of the safest streets around. There is very limited access to it so you don't have to worry about traffic up and down the streets all day and all night. And best of all, while you are kept away from the main roads, they are close enough to where you don't feel cut off from the w...

Everything and more

08/05/2008 23:07:38 -07:00

This street has it all. If you want to eat, there are restaurants, if you want to shop, you couldn't ask for a better selection of major stores and small shops to choose from, and if you like access, you are nearby most of the major roadways in the city.
This is a great place for singles, couples,...

Far too noisy

08/05/2008 23:04:09 -07:00

This place has one good aspect and that is that it is near the major freeway and roads. Unfortunately, that means traffic nonstop even at night when you are trying to get sleep. The roads are dangerous to cross because of all of the cars and people who love to talk on their cell phones while driving...

A fun place to be

08/05/2008 23:00:22 -07:00

This place has it all. There are so many things to do that you may end up coming here and leaving without being able to participate in all of the activities. If you love tennis, there is always someone out there looking to play. The only bad thing is that it gets quiet early and people here really d...

quiet and pretty

08/05/2008 22:56:44 -07:00

This is a nice place to go if you like peace and quiet. The people are good because they stay out of your way and for the most part they don't get in your business. For anyone who has dealt with neighbors that are always in other people's business, you will appreciate this aspect of this area. All i...

Great view if you can afford it

08/05/2008 21:02:41 -07:00

This is a great place to live, and it doesn't get a whole lot more beautiful on this side of the world, than it is here. If you love the water and beaches, like most people do than you will want to visit this place and chances are you wont want to leave. The only problem is that you have to have a l...

luxury and convenience

08/05/2008 20:57:23 -07:00

This is a great place to live. It has many things that anyone would love to have near them. It has shopping in some really top quality stores, there are places to eat, and the freeway is close. The good thing is that you have access to it, but the bad thing is that the traffic can sometimes get out...

Great neighborhood with a great view

08/05/2008 20:38:09 -07:00

A very close friend of mine lived on this street and it truly was a one of a kind place. The street was very quiet and boasted a spectacular view of San Diego Bay to the east. There are two great parks nearby that are great for entertaining and getting together with friends as well. The street it...

Wonderful place to live

08/05/2008 18:57:17 -07:00

I lived here for 4 years and loved every minute of it. It has breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean to the west and if you are lucky, great views of San Diego Bay to the east. There is relatively little traffic in the area, especially considering there is a university nearby. The neighbors are...

One of the most beautiful drives you'll ever see!

08/05/2008 18:50:27 -07:00

Sunset Cliffs Blvd. runs right along the pacific ocean connecting the Point Loma and Ocean Beach communities of San Diego. In order to live closer to the south, near Point Loma requires a lot of money as each of those homes is going to be at least above $1,000,000 if not more. But as it winds alon...

Great, beautiful spot to live

08/05/2008 18:42:31 -07:00

I have never technically lived on this street, but my two best friends did so I have spent a lot of time in this area. Facing the west, Del Monte has an incredible view of the Pacific Ocean. The street is relatively quiet with little traffic most times of the day. It also has a variety of housing...

Great beach community & good street to get around

08/05/2008 18:38:46 -07:00

W. Point Loma Blvd. has a lot to offer. On the east end of it there is a number of great shops, restaurants, and is a primary road getting around the Point Loma and Ocean Beach area of San Diego. As you go west, the road continues to get more residential as you enter Ocean Beach, a great little be...

Tons of great stuff, but too busy to live on

08/05/2008 09:40:48 -07:00

Rosecrans is the main street through the Point Loma peninsula area of San Diego. Over the last few years it has become a great spot for shopping and dining, but less attractive in my opinion for living. There are some residential spots along this main road ranging from brand new single family home...

Busy street with nice homes, but I wouldn't want to live there

08/05/2008 09:34:50 -07:00

Chatsworth Blvd. is a main road through the Point Loma area of San Diego. I lived right off of this road for approximately 4 years and drove it everyday. There are some very nice homes located all along Chatsworth but I would not want to live there simply because of how busy the street is. I had...

A good street to know about to make getting around easier

08/05/2008 09:29:46 -07:00

Nimitz Blvd. is one of those streets that simply makes life easier. It runs right through the middle of the Point Loma area and leads straight into downtown if you go east and straight to the coast if you go west. It has many lanes and is usually traffic free most times of the day. There are a go...

Quiet, wonderful street to live

08/05/2008 09:25:17 -07:00

I lived on Quimby St. for about 4 years and it was fantastic. From the relatively quiet neighborhood, the friendly neighbors, the close proximity to freeways and shopping, it truly was a great spot to live. What I liked most about it is that you could walk to a couple of great restaurants and coff...

Great neighborhood and beautiful, quiet drive.

08/05/2008 09:15:55 -07:00

I drove Catalina Blvd. approximately 3 times a week for about 8 years. It is a beautiful little street that runs right along the crest of the Point Loma peninsula area of San Diego. It is primarily all residential, with virtually no services of any kind except for a small gas station and bar that...

Talmadge = chopper path

03/03/2008 15:01:35 -08:00

Just close enough to share the high price of Talmadge's upscale homes and just far enough away from the ghetto on the other side of El Cajon to make it not worth the price. This particular block is exactly on the circumference of the circle that the police helicopters do when hunting bad guys, which...

Live in montierra apartments for 2 years. Very happy

21/01/2008 13:11:21 -08:00

While living near the 15 could potentially be a noise problem, the location of our apartment has not had this issue. It's fairly quiet and the neighbors are friendly.

Dumpy neighborhood that's getting worse due to downtown development pushing homeless people into the area

21/01/2008 12:29:39 -08:00

Crime has shot up over the last two years as more homeless and drug dealers infest the neighborhood. They are coming from the downtown area since that area is being revitalized.

pretty, palm trees lining the street, unique cute houses pretty yards

21/01/2008 08:04:52 -08:00

this is a beautiful street lined with tall palm trees. older cute ca bungalows ..... unique and pretty... nice yards and neighbors.. reccomended to anyone.... 25-70

Quiet, Friendly neighbors, Great Schools, Well Established Neighborhood, Mostly Owner Occupied

Quiet, Friendly neighbors, Great Schools, Well Established Neighborhood, Mostly Owner Occupied, Large Park Near by, GOlf course

Great place to raise children

19/01/2008 11:05:21 -08:00

Quiet, end of community location. Little to no traffic. Community has 2 pools, lighted tennis courts, club house, and 9 hole golf course. Community HOA rules are tolerable. Schools are some of the best in the nation.

Small Town Feel in a Big City

07/01/2008 09:23:06 -08:00

El Cerrito has an eclectic mix of people, pets and houses. It is a very diverse neighborhood with access to all the San Diego has to offer. The community is active in community planning and is anticipating redevelopment of the neighboring business district in the near future which will provide a d...

27/12/2007 02:21:57 -08:00

These neighbors at the end cul de sac of this street have been terrorizing everyone in the neighborhood for 2 decades. We swear that one of the 2 "women" who live there constantly watches out of her window to keep guard. They always yell at kids for playing near (within 20 yards) their sidewalk, spr...

A wonderful place to live! Also, convenient to everything. Very safe.

24/12/2007 15:48:09 -08:00

Single family homes. Few rentals. Convenient to most major arteries. Great weather with mucho sunshine. Good nearby restaurants, libraries, schools K-12, colleges, hospitals, dentists, shopping malls, sports stadiums,etc. Many retired people. Very, Very safe.

A True Sense of Community

18/12/2007 00:10:50 -08:00

The community spirit on El Cerrito Drive is second to none, as far as anything I have ever seen. The involvement between neighbors is incredible. From our annual block party, chili cookoff, movie night, and others; it is hard to beat the neighborly spirit. It is a touch of days gone by. Children...

Bellatrix Court San Diego

17/12/2007 19:46:59 -08:00

cul de sac with 7 homes, established in 1971. Mostly
retired people, friendly and have lived here many years.

Too fantastic to believe

17/12/2007 12:53:09 -08:00

I LOVE my neighborhood and my street in particular. The neighbors are wonderful, caring, generous, and genuinely interesting people.

Friends from other parts of San Diego or back on east cannot believe how great my neighborhood is and they all want to move here.

First, everyone knows each o...

Nice but noisy

16/12/2007 22:36:11 -08:00

The closest cross street is Rowan. There's an elementary school down the block which creates quite a bit of traffic in the mornings and afternoons. Parents dropping off or picking up their kids don't quite stop at the stop sign so you get trapped in your driveway because there are so many cars going...

A well maintained, pleasant neighborhood, that's close to town via fwy. 8.

16/12/2007 12:57:59 -08:00

Del Cerro Blvd. runs East and West, paralleling Freeway 8 on the North side, just opposite from the campus of San Diego State University that borders the South side of the freeway. Our neighborhood was established in the mid-50s and has aged quite gracefully. It's neat, clean, tree-lined streets ar...

Central to everything

16/12/2007 12:31:11 -08:00

Quick and easy freeway access. Close to downtown, shopping, entertainment. Gated, quiet community on a hilltop.

Sail Bay, Pacific Beach, a loud slice of paradise

16/12/2007 11:42:17 -08:00

One of the best locations in San Diego, walk to the beach, bay, shops, restaurants, and bars ... but the noise, traffic, vagrants, and vandals are a major problem and completely ignored by the local police. A community of million-dollar properties occupied mostly by loud renters.

The greatest projects

16/12/2007 11:18:38 -08:00

Get away from the cramped and cluttered and enjoy the multiple parks. Great neighborhood to stroll around in just check the traffic to make sure that you don't get run over.

High end golf community, clean, quiet and family-oriented

16/12/2007 10:28:42 -08:00

The street is a cul-de-sac and therefore extremely quiet. There are many families with children and pets. Our street is on the edge of the developement and is full of freindly people.

There is a strong sense of community since most of us moved in around the same time. We have each other's em...

A good family neighborhood

16/12/2007 10:24:50 -08:00

White Birch Drive is located in the Hunter's Pointe neighborhood of the Scripps Ranch community of San Diego. The neighborhood is quiet from a traffic standpoint as there are no through streets. One way in and out for about 50 large single-family detached homes.

There is an excellent mix of fam...

Bustling with activity!

30/08/2007 18:36:03 -07:00

University Ave is the main street through Hillcrest which is San Diegos most diverse community. It has a very friendly mixture of people, wonderful restaurants, crazy nightclubs and fun, funky shopping. Great place to hang out if you like high energy.

Good place to live if you are accustomed to city sounds.

06/08/2007 08:28:57 -07:00

We moved onto our street a little over 2 months ago and love the location. We are just 3 blocks from Little Italy, 4 blocks from Balboa Park, 3 minutes to the airport, and a 10 minute drive to any beaches. We love the area for it's central location but you have to be able to digest the airport tra...

Horrible Neighboors

04/08/2007 16:09:14 -07:00

There is a half-way house across the street, and a ghetto day care right across the street as well. Next door you have your average get drunk beer gut white man who loves to be loud and leave his dog out to harass others. Do not live on this street !!! Horrible neighboorhood and not safe! Why values...

Good if you want to be near downtown/ballpark

31/07/2007 07:20:15 -07:00

Nice place to live in general. Price is fairly high for what you get but the amenities are nice. It is on the edge on the nice and not so nice part of town, but the area around the building feels safe. Also it is good if you have dogs, because they provide grass areas and bags near the building.

Secluded Neighborhood

04/05/2007 23:11:59 -07:00

Our street is removed from the main thoroughfares. Although it parallels a freeway, there is no access nearby, eliminating most traffic. The neighbors are friendly, but never intrusive. It is a haven for dog walkers.

Empty Nesters,Yuppies, & Mid Century Purists Welcomed; Poor Fit for Children/families >2

16/04/2007 22:19:36 -07:00

Steeply pitched street on the south face of San Diego's famous Mt. Soledad. Located within the North Pacific Beach (local say PB) district. Drogin developed and Palmer and Krisel designed Mid Century Modern charm. Swift & frequent traffic and serpiginous turns create great hazard for children at pla...

Small beach town in the middle of a big city

29/03/2007 14:57:30 -07:00

I've lived on Narragansett Ave since 1994, and I love it. Ocean Beach feels like a small beach town, but it's right in the middle of San Diego, so you get the best of both worlds.

My street is 2 blocks from the main drag in OB, Newport Ave, where the bulk of bars & restaurants are. On my corner...
