pappysmarket 2,050 Report post Posted October 15, 2016 For someone who would like to retire to So. Cal. but can't afford the real estate taxes, it might be an alternative. Easy commute (at mid day) to some of the best healthcare, including VA, beaches, San Diego Zoo, great restaurants. The airport in TJ is very good with connections to everywhere in Mexico. Head east and soon in cool mountain climate for fall excursions including apples. Valle de Guadeloupe a couple of hours away for fabulous wineries and some great olive oil. Sea World, Leggoland, and the Wild Animal Park are not far for you and your family. Disney Land a short drive away. San Diego airport for other airline alternatives. Certainly not an alternative to Lakeside but it does have the same gorgeous weather that San Diego has and with commuter rail you can cross on foot and be downtown in no time. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pappysmarket 2,050 Report post Posted October 16, 2016 I don't put much stock in the accuracy of that site. Having lived a few miles east of SD for 6 years I am well aware of how nice the climate is. It sounds like it's not your cup of tea. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
