Stan Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 Moved to San Diego like a couple of months ago for a job, it's a big city, a lot of interesting people so far, gas is way to expensive hitting close to 6 dollars in some spots here. A lot of homeless people roam the streets, they do have a trolley that takes you all over still learning the places, know a few though, but I miss Nashville, miss the small town, the country side, driving through the backwoods, saying hi to random people and them saying it back(here I do it and people look at me strange) I guess people are just more nicer in the south as they say. I miss the great places of Nashville, the food, the hot wings, the burgers, the diverse culture here you get it but it's not the same as it is mostly hispanic culture. I can't ever get to watch the games as the streams suck, all in all I miss the great city of Nashville and hope to come back there and live someday soon.

Stan Posted October 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 So people in Nashville, keep me filled in with the events surrounding the city, the news please keep me posted. Can't believe it's been already 2 years since the floods of 2010. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 I have done alot of business over the years with people who live in the SD area and I have never met one of them who didn't love it and would live anywhere else in the States. You changed all that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhonderoo Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 I've lived in southern California and it was nice, but I like seasons and fall is my favorite... you have nice weather in that part of the country, but it never really changes. Except when it's on fire. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

People in California (and in Washington as well from my experience, although maybe less so) have a much different comfort level with their personal space and what they see as intrusion to be their personal life. For the most part people like to go about their business in public spaces and engaging strangers in public (even to say hello) makes them uncomfortable. In fact, their first thoughts are probably going to be: "Do I know you?" and "Why are you talking to me?". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cenj Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 Nashville is an awesome town. Lots of great places out there to live -- everybody has a personal preference, to each his own. I've never lived in SD, but I imagine it's a phenomenal quality of life if you have the money and can afford it. I did live in SF (Northern CA is totally different from SoCal, you can't really group them together culturally) and you couldn't pay me to live there over Nashville. @Cyrus is spot on (as is the Onion article). As far as dense cities go, I really dig Chicago, if it wasn't so friggin' cold for so friggin' long. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhonderoo Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 As a lady Titan fan, I'm quite fond of Coronado Island... and the um... birdwatching. Not sure if you were talking to me TW, but I live in Memphis now... and it's a different kind of fire, it's the asphalt in summer. Memphis does have a little bit better season change, although we don't get much of a winter. And summer is hot as hell. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although my favorite place in all of California is the Monterey Peninsula. It is the most bizarre business environment though. There's almost zero residential development and no real job market outside of tourism. Hard to think that there's a place more beautiful then Carmel-by-the-sea and Point Lobos though. Carmel Valley is beautiful as well. I'd take that part of the California central coast over anywhere in SoCal. Similar in the case that if you have the money you could have an off-the-charts quality of life. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

San Diego is a nice place, too. You just have to be there a little longer to start finding what you like to do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
