San Diego is a large city that sits right on the Mexican Border. It is one of the older cities in the U.S. beginning with the Spanish missions and explorations (of course, don't forget the Kumeyaay who were here long before the Spaniards). Here is a picture of East Mission Bay, an artificially enhanced bay that is mostly used for recreation.
- Pros:The weather is very moderate
- Cons:The rents (and most everything else) is expensive
- In a nutshell:Come here and spends lots and lots of money!
