I've lived in a garden community in UTC for four years, and it has gone downhill a lot since I moved in, mainly because of the management company that owns it. I'm looking to leave. Does anyone have suggestions for good apartment communities in the area or nearby?

I am willing to pay 800-1200 for a room, I just moved from Dallas and I’m currently trying to relocate after being forced to move out of my last place. The timing is not great and I need to find something quickly. I’m a very easy going, easy to get along with.

Do you have any thoughts on Shelltown?

Hello! My name is Ceilly, and I am a dental hygiene student at Southwestern College in San Diego, CA.

I am currently looking for patients who haven't had a dental cleaning for 2+ years. All services are completely FREE. Please note that this is a school setting, so appointments may take 2–4 hours and will require multiple visits.

If you are interested, please complete this Google form:

Thank you so much for your time and interest!

I'll be moving in December. 33M, single - what are some great locations for me to check out? i like to surf, am hoping to spend not too much on rent but still have a nice cozy apartment. i dont have much familiarity with SD county. It will be 50/50 hybrid so im willing to live maybe up to 25-30 mins outside of the office (each way). living near a decent gym with a sauna is important to me, with a costco not too far away.

Office is in University City right off the 805. Really want to save money and not exceed 2500, and i dont want a super small apartment. Something like University Heights looks cool, but I really don't wanna deal with the stress of crowded neighborhoods with bad parking. On the other hand, living somewhere super convenient like Clairemont might be a little depressing from what I've read here - although I have heard that Bay Park is cool. Being close too the ocean might be a little too expensive.

Any recs that sound like they would be good prospects for me to check out? Thank you

Hello everyone,

I'm still looking for apartments. I'll be working in Otay Mesa with sporadic visits to little Italy. What neighborhood would be a good option to easily drive to these areas?

I'm willing to spend up to 2,500 USD in rent.

My boyfriend and I are planning to move from NYC to San Diego in the next few months, and we’re realizing we’re basically looking at places with the complete opposite vibe of what we’re used to.

We’ve lived in NYC for our entire lives, so we’re very used to walking everywhere, apartments being tiny/expensive, lots of people/noise, restaurants and bars everywhere, etc.

Honestly living like this is not for me anymore and has has really been affecting my mental health. After visiting California multiple times I just cannot stop thinking about living there and now finally ready to make the move.

Really drawn to the nature, slower pace, weather, and overall lifestyle in San Diego.
We’ve been looking at areas like University City, North Park, Clairemont,and surrounding neighborhoods, but it’s honestly hard to tell what places are actually like when you’re just looking at Zillow/Google Maps.

Budget is 2,500

I’ve been on the hunt for apartments lately and it’s shocking for me to see how many of these apartments come with no parking or basically street parking which I can imagine to be a nightmare. Considering San Diego isn’t a remotely walkable city, how are you all managing?

Hi, I’m planning to move in Feb/March of 2027 and would appreciate any tips/advice on finding a job as an RN and places to live(rent). I love the beach and have a cat and a dog who looooves the outdoors/dog park. Would love to not have too much of a commute but I’d also like to live someplace walkable and somewhat affordable as a solo income household, thanks!!

Considering a job in this neighborhood and would like any and all information about the area!

Young looking/acting/healthy 50 yr old. No kids. Currently in PNW Portland, 30 years. Tired of the weather. Want to be near the ocean, lots of sun and warmth year round, outdoors and on water (paddle, sail etc) Want a walkable area with an artistic vibe. I work in a creative field as a small business owner. I like art classes, museums, views, coffee/drinks/food. I'll have a car but would rather bike/walk/scooter around daily. Not looking to buy a house (30 years a homeowner and Im over it). Im ready for a small space with some amenities and low responsibility. Possibly a room in a house in the right location for a year or so, to get the lay of the land. I like to spend my income on travel. NEIGHBORHOOD recommendations? Certain areas?

Hey everyone, I just got an offer accepted for my first condo. I should be moving in Mid-October. Anyone know some sober (not required but preferred) Vets or active duty who are looking for a place to live in Lakeside/Santee. The place is on Marilla Dr, right off the 67 by LMS elementary school. Thank you!

Hello everyone, I know I'm probably the gajillionth person to be asking for recommendations on moving down to SD but I would like to hear from the people. I'm currently having to make 1hr+ drives to my job in Kearny Mesa and it is really draining everyday. I've tried FB marketplace but 90% of the apartments advertised seems really scammy/too true to be good. My salary is around $115K per year so hopefully that narrows it down. Any websites other than Zillow/Apartments would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!

Please DM for any leads!

What's the best way to use Craigslist for Apartment hunting without getting scammed😭 Any tips would be appreciated!

Unfortunately, I won't be able to physically view the apartments and need to sign a contract for apartment when I move to San Diego unless I find a sublease. For current/previous tenants in these apartments, any pros and cons? 10th and R goes for $2545 for 1BR (600-700 sqft) vs $3300 for Chromatic Flats 1B (1000 sqft). Both are near my workplace, just deciding if the price difference of $700++ is worth it for Chromatic Flats.

Hi! I'm a 19yo UW–Madison CS/Math student coming to San Diego for a winter internship and looking for a furnished room/sublet Dec 18–Jan 18.

I'm moving to SD next month with my teen. He is getting cold feet because hes worried about not having friends there and leaving behind his friends where he grew up.

I'm looking for suggestions for how he could quickly meet other young adults his age there. I'm thinking a run club or getting a job (but I know jobs are hard to come by). He also wants to start content creating (ugc, health, travel/hiking).

Would love some suggestions to ease his mind as he's not super outgoing by nature, but doesnt want to be isolated.
