5 Reasons to Move to San Diego

Published: June 07, 2020

Are you thinking about moving and maybe even keeping it classy in San Diego? Whether for work or purely to explore new opportunities in a new town, San Diego is a beautiful city nestled in Southern California just 20 miles north of the Mexican border. With its easy access to the Pacific Ocean and Mexico and Baja California a short drive away, San Diego is a melting pot of cultures and backgrounds that makes it one of the best places to live in the country, according to U.S. News & World Report.

At UNITS Moving & Portable Storage of San Diego, we may be biased in our opinion that there are plenty of reasons to move here, but nonetheless, here are 5 of our favorite reasons to move to San Diego.

1. The Weather

If you enjoy the sun and weather somewhere in the 70s-80s almost year round, then San Diego might just be your paradise. It’s no wonder why Southern California has such a reputation because between the sun and the surf it’s hard not to enjoy the outdoors year round in a way that makes your friends in most other parts of the U.S. a little jealous in the cold winters.

2. The Food Scene

San Diego’s food scene is emerging as one of the best in the country. With dozens of restaurants owned by world famous chefs, you’ll never be at a loss to try something new. From tacos and tinga to fresh seafood pulled from the bay, San Diego’s food scene is absolutely first class.

3. Excellent Schools

When it comes to moving with a family one of the first considerations from a parent’s point of view is often how the local school districts are ranked, rated and perceived by their local community. San Diego is home to multiple highly regarded colleges and universities and many of the top high schools in the country.

4. Small Town Feel, City Amenities

If you’ve spent any time in a larger city like Los Angeles or New York, San Diego is going to feel like a small town for you because well, it’s smaller. But one thing you won’t have to sacrifice is city amenities like all hours access to late night chinese food or taxis home from a local watering hole.

5. The Best Beaches

One of the hidden gems about San Diego is our easy access to some of the most pristine beaches in Southern California. With Oceanside and many others just a stone’s throw away from the center of San Diego, you and your family can enjoy a beautiful day at the beach surfing, boogie-boarding, skim-boarding or just soaking up the sun.

Whatever your reason for the move, we love San Diego and our town loves us.
