Anyone here live in San Diego? Currently based out of Boston, but my wife and I are thinking of making a move to the West Coast if both of our companies continue to be fully remote. Leaning towards San Diego right now - but wanted to see if anyone was out there/how they like it?

I live in Los Angeles (moved here from Washington DC) and have spent a reasonable amount of time in San Diego, including for work.

1) West Coast beats East Coast in terms of lifestyle and all - hands down.

2) San Diego is nice, but pales in comparison to LA in terms of the sheer amount of things to do, cultural diversity/amenities, food, etc. Keep that in mind depending on what your interests are.

Happy to chat more if you like.

San Diego is nice. LA is ok ..!! Nothing beats the Bay Area IMO :) .. but depends on what you want.

Conventional wisdom on current firm counter-offering when mentioning you have a few offers? I have an offer at a large firm in Miami. Current large firm has no office there but mentioned they can likely let me be there in a remote basis. BCG and a few other law blog sites have advised against accepting current firm counter-offers, e.g., likely to leave, not loyal, off partner track, etc., but would love to hear everyone’s thoughts.
