well if u want good neighborhood heres some suggestions:

•the region around Imperial Beach wouldnt be good. too many "hoodlums" i grew up there.

•Coronado is a crazy safe place (their crime rate is supposedly pretty much 0) but that place is mosty retired old people XD and took quite in my opinion.

•East san diego / Paradise hills. its kidna the opposite of what it sounds. Area is filled with all monorities and not the best income neighborbood, so u know how that would get.

•The Ocean View Hills/Casoleil area is mid-imcome community, but adjacent to the border community of San Ysidro and those who live on Palm Avenue (connects to imperial beach). So there could be some mischeivous kids around. I currently live in this location.

•Best place I know in south san diego is Otay Ranch/East Lake Area. good name for them people who lived there back in high school is "the rich bitches". =D great place to be!


(IM MAINLY basing all this information FOR the sake of your car. im not saying anythign bad about these communities, they are all great and not bad AT ALL (except maybe PH). they are all perfectly safe to live in and im not trying to stereotype any of them. Take my information as u want.)

So MY top suggestion for places in the south region are:
1. Otay Ranch/ East Lake
2. Ocean View Hills/ Casoleil



As for places to visit: Grand Canyon? Las Vegas? i dont travel much......

I agree, eastlake/ otay ranch, also east J street in Chula vista is a nice area, most of the houses were built in the 70's and you can probally rent a 3 bedroom house with two car garage for around $1.3k. Also 1st to 3rd ave is a nice area, mostly retired people but nice area,houses were built in the 50's or 60's but the area is nice, big back yards, long driveways ect.. planning on buying a house in that area next year.

Let's have a meet soon!!

BTW Borderline-G37, is you g37 IP and lowered on oem wheels?

My vote is for Mission Valley or the East Lake/Otay Ranch area. Coronado is expensive...
