I'm so lucky that we own our apartment. My dad could of never afforded to live in this area if he were to buy now. Also San Diego's Downtown is really nice, not a fan of the city beside Coronado - but the Downtown is extremely walkable and safe. Transport is MEH, and the highways are a dump but its a decent city. Overrated though, like New York. Little Italy is nice there too tho, but not as good as our Mulberry Street. Plus you cant get a god damn good cannoli there.
