Are you contemplating a move to San Diego? Here are just a few reasons why we think San Diego lives up to its nickname, “America’s finest city.”
Considered the birthplace of California, San Diego is the state’s second-largest city, with a population of nearly 1.3 million residents citywide and a countywide population of more than 3 million. Some famous faces – including Dr. Seuss; musical acts Rihanna and Blink 182; actors Michelle Williams, Tori Spelling, Betty White and Ted Danson; and even Bill Gates of Microsoft – have called San Diego home.
But perhaps San Diego’s most celebrated and longstanding resident is its mild, Mediterranean- like climate. Average temperatures hover around 70 degrees and only dip to an average of 65 in the coolest month (January) and 78 in the hottest month (August). Thanks to its unique topography San Diego County features environments ranging from coastal to the west to foothills, mountains and desert to the east. Northern San Diego County is an agricultural hotbed for flowers, produce and a burgeoning wine growing region.
Thanks to its enviable climate, San Diego’s great outdoors is simply a way of life. There are 70 miles of shimmering shoreline for surfing, sailing, walking and running, or simply staking your claim on a square of sand for a day of fun in the sun or a picnic at sunset. If golfing is more your speed, choose from one of San Diego County’s 92 courses.
In addition to its natural wonders, San Diego County also boasts world-famous attractions such as Balboa Park (the largest urban cultural park in the U.S.), the San Diego Zoo, San Diego Zoo Safari Park, Sea World San Diego, LEGOLAND California, the Gaslamp District, Del Mar Thoroughbred Club, Cabrillo National Monument, and a number of charming seaside communities such as Coronado, La Jolla, Del Marand Solana Beach.
From beach-side cottages to historic mission-style homes and downtown condos, San Diego County offers something for everyone. So what are you waiting for? Contact Willis Allen Real Estate today so we can help you find your San Diego dream home.
