210 kilometers south of Los Angeles, San Diego is the
southern end of a nearly continuous urban agglomeration that extends
from the Mexican border to Santa Barbara, spanning nearly 400
kilometers of Southern California coast. San Diego’s civic marketeers
have a proclaimed it “America’s finest city.” Although I’m naturally
skeptical of any such claims, I will agree that San Diego is a fine
place to visit— even if the very high cost of housing makes it a less
than fine place to live.
