Review of San Diego, California


San Diego is highly overrated - America's Finest C
Star Rating - 10/24/2015
Relo from So Florida // one year in San Diego // the place is way overrated and does not have the 'best weather in the country' // the city is very dirty and run down and overrun with homeless people everywhere // real estate is very expensive and not very good value, dollar for dollar // can be very dull and monotonous and people do not have a good old east coast sense of humor - folks seem repressed and a bit passive.agressive and the 'flakiness' is chronic (rude!) - it feels like Stepford & Ground Hog Day combined..... can't wait to leave and move elsewhere

Yup....to summarize, SD is an overpriced, underwhelming, desert with irrigation and an unsophisticated populace...JV restaurants, nightlife, airport, pro sports town, lifestyle, and—yes, I agree, even the weather is overrated...when the weather is overrated, you remove 90% of the people’s talking points and you have zero reason to stay (unless you are originally from there and have family).
