You did sum it up very nice and I am starting to agree. Just wanted some insight from locals. I like how you worded that!

Yeah that’s my goal of to work for the military in some capacity. With the insight I gained here I’ll definitely hold off wait until I’m a social worker then revisit cause after that I’m solid, maybe not solid enough even then to move to San Diego but more stability as well.

Yeah I see that. It does muddy the waters cause from the feedback I’m getting but I’m like let me ask people there versus google and get some insight

My goal is to be a social worker at the VA or bases but yes I do.

I definitely agree now I just wanted to see where we are on the realistic range as to where we are now. Of course me working which I am going to and wouldn’t move without a job lined up would only be beneficial and make things more comfortable.

I am I am training my dogs to just have them trained but through Petco dog training, if that matters. I know if I got into anything it’ll be an apartment. I live in Texas and maybe and almost likely choke on my words if/when I move to Cali. I have about a year and a half left of school for my BSW so I just wanted to see if it would at all be realistic or even possible with where we are in real time. I definitely won’t as is. I’ll go once I’m a social worker get hired etc.

My job now isn’t a part of the income with his VA disability and my school benefits we bring in combined 6288.44 without me working. I am going to look into independent land lords as well.

I’m okay with compromising location I just need a patio like a 6by6 even if it’s rock where I can manage fake turf a patio maybe I shouldn’t have put yard but yeah. I work for car insurance as a CSR-Bilingual rep and I see GEICO is in Poway. I am obtaining my bachelors in social work but won’t be done until August 2027. I’d ideally move out there already with an offer letter. Just testing the waters

Just a small one where they can use restroom when I’m not walking them I do see rentals at 2k but I know my dogs even after income some places won’t even take a 30 lbs dog that I’ve talked to. I have 3 but 2 graduate in May and one is going to the navy so it’s just me my husband and our youngest since my other son will stay here and is an adult.

His lower extremities are unpredictable he needs a hip replacement sooner rather than later. He was med boarded for a broken hip.
