    Show me a place anywhere in the world that has good weather and near the ocean with great beaches ,that is cheap to live. Maybe a few third world countries, but they are only cheaper because of the exchange in money. Local people in third world countries don't think it is cheap.

    Yeah the cost of living is outrageous, especially in San Diego! I keep my expenses relatively low and I don't really buy too many things, but I always get sticker shock when I see the prices. Just gotta find ways to save on housing, food, and transportation where you can as they're the three biggest expenses for most people.

    If you have kids, expect to spend at least 1k per child if you want them to be able to compete for good colleges. People often forget that raising a child to college age so they are able to afford to live in the city when they become adults cost money. There are no cheap options for anything child related in this city. You want your kids in sports? You are spending at least 200 a month for the bare minimum. Competitive sports? 800 bucks easy. Want to feed them? Well you can get by 50 bucks a week maybe if you have time to cook every meal.
    Childcare cost? 1k a month minimum. Camp? 1k per month per kid and that is of you get a spot.
    School? You want to get your kid guaranteed into a 9 or 10 on greatschools? You need a 200k household or you can always CHOICE into a good school from where you live. Good luck.
    San Diego is beautiful. Everywhere is beautiful here. But it is expensive. Raising children here can be super expensive because there aren't any cheap options for anything for the middle class.

    Right now I'm 21 boy, lives in Az for time being and working my way to see and if i want to go back to California, definitely y San Diego is my pick, my only problem though is is that i have to learn my budget there, getting a job that pays well, saving up to buy my first car, apartment room, food, gas, bills, and way more then more, honestly it's a lot of my mind and real stressful the more I think about it more, but by the end of the day this is what I want, this is part of my living y dream goals, love the weather Beach, trees, areas, city, and more there that I find worth to go back hopefully my plans work susessfuly 😢😢😢❤

    Daycare was $1200 a month on the cheap end $2500 per kid for the nicest preschools.
    Grocerries for 4 is more like $2k a month if you dont restrict food quality and have normally picky kids.
    If you acctually want to enjoy the food scene in San Diego, eating out can easily run $1000 to $1500 a month. Cost of resturant dining has felt pretty stable. $60 can get a family of 4 dinner at CPK. But any nice resturants with good drinks with probably run about $50-$100 per adult.
    Gas has alway been high but if you work from home it is mostly irrelavent.
    Electricty in the summer if you use AC is probably $500-$1000 a month even in a small place.
    At this point costs like child care are mandatory if you want a chance of affording rent in a nice school district. Because you will probably want a $200k+ household income. And that is honestly on the low end struggle side of SD incomes. Breaking $200k is relatively difficult for most single income earners as thats only about 6% of eaners. The rest of you will need a spouse to help gwt over the hump.
    You can get by on alot less but you will fall below the middle class standard of living in most other states.

      No he is realistic. I've lived here my entire life and I'm raising my child here and this is true. Everything child related in this city is extremely expensive and limited. It is just what it cost. For instance camp is 280 a week is the standard rate for bare minimum meaning you will not find anywhere licensed cheaper than that.

      I just came from the East Coast to move out to San Diego because of my job. People don't talk about it a lot, but down towards the south the humidity is through the roof. We're talking unable to sweat to cool off type humidity. It affects the heat and the cold. Sure, trees are great. But you're better off in Oregon, or Washington, or even further north in California than East Coast if you like to be outside to admire the trees.
