…a little bit of this, a little bit of that


So you like the hip urban lifestyle, but you also like a little peace and quiet. Not too much though; you still want some nightlife, right? And a decent mix of neighbors. And different types of moderately-priced places to live, right? Oh, and you want to be on the northwest side of Balboa Park, because you really like it there and want to make it your usual stomping ground.

What else would you like? How about some of the best restaurants in the city? And even a couple antique stores, and certainly a few decent coffee shops. Book fairs and farmers’ markets, too. And of course you can’t live too far from the Whole Foods. Someplace eclectic-and-village-y-but-not-too-severely-urban. So where are you supposed to find an area with all of those things?

You’ve come to the right place.
