Nowhere is like San Diego. It was 75 and sunny on last Sunday, nice sea breeze to keep the weather absolutely perfect. At night there is anything you want from incredibly hot women in the bars of Pacific Beach, the "sophisticated" and not so sophisticated bars of Gaslamp. Of course since so many are inclined in here hookers in Tijuana will run you about $50 or if you would rather avoid that scene you can get tons of authentic Mexican food for under $10 or go to a nightclub with no cover and beer costing about $2. Casinos are about 30 minutes away if you really need some action, one of the best poker rooms around is Oceans 11 with action most people can't believe, beaches are everywhere and except for warm Saturdays or holidays are generally not that crowded, the place has too many hotel rooms so its never hard to get a place and for a pretty fair rate...I could go on and on. If you get bored with all that (don't know how), you can drive in less than 2 hours (non rush hours) and be wherever you want in LA. And as they always like to say only in Southern California can you go from snow in the mountains to the beach, in the same morning. Just how does anyone beat that?
