I moved to the North Park area back in '58. Lived there most of my life. Left 20 months ago for Guadalajara, a bit farther south of SD than you'd expect.
Always loved San Diego. Then, it got popular. They'll show you pixs of the Petco Park but I didn't see any of the horrendous traffic problem "after game" that it generates. People won't tell you about that one.
I worked in No Country and the traffic on 405/805/8 is totally insane. It takes hours...at rush hour. It only got better after I got my Harley.
Water is "cool." You don't actually need a wetsuit, but it helps. The Pacific Coast is far from "warm."
The nicest part of living in San Diego is: You have LA 2 hours north, Las Vegas 5 hours north, the mountains 1 hour east, the desert 2 hours east and a foreign country 15 minutes south.
Loads of splittails available in Dago, if you know where to look.
However, I walked away from the Dago high prices and ramped up speed of life, for the more tranquil life here, in Guadalajara, MX. That is, if you can call Mexico's 2nd largest city w/7M+ people "tranquil." LOL
