I lived in San Diego for the last two years and this article doesn't make much sense to me. They say the problem is that Sorento valley is to far from San Diego downtown but downtown is dull and there are plenty of good places to live not far away from Sorento valley (Del Mar, La Jolla, Pacific Beach). I commuted from North Park to the UCSD campus which is close to Sorrento valley and it was no problem at all.
- CalRobert 10y agoThat's funny, I remember getting from North Park to Sorrento Valley being sheer, utter hell on earth, most of it spent crawling up 805 at a snail's pace. Also, downtown (well, the gaslamp at least) is kinda meh but North Park, South Park, and Golden Hill are probably the best neighborhoods in the city, and about 2 miles from DT. DT does have one advantage though in that you can take the Coaster to Sorrento Valley.
- tmalsburg2 10y agoI used the 5 but I suppose it also depends on when you have to show up at work. I had some flexibility and could usually avoid the worst traffic.
- lisowski 10y agoThe 805 is by far the worst freeway in SD. During any commuting time, you are bound to crawl.
- sk8ingdom 10y agoNot to mention that equipped with a bike and the coaster [1], you could easily make it between Downtown (either Santa Fe or Old Town), and Sorrento Valley in 40 minutes. Granted, there isn't a super safe way to get to / from the Old Town station.
