I came here for Miramar Air Show and this was my first experience ever! It was amazing to see the…read morestatic displays of the aircraft's from various military branches. I walked through some of them and they were pretty huge! I've always seen the inside of military planes in movies but it definitely feels different when you're actually inside! There were also multiple booths in the area, with a Monster pop up, giving away free drinks. We also participated in the pie throwing fundraiser, which was a lot of fun. Although one of my friends got shaving cream all over herself and there were no paper towels nearby to wipe off. One thing to note is that there aren't very many food booths and places to sit. Also, they ran out of soap near the bathrooms. Some ppl did bring their folding chairs so at least they were prepared. I was able to snag some preferred seating during the Blue Angels Airshow & it was totally worth it! Grandstand seating was pretty tight, so make sure you go to the bathroom before the show. The precision and skill level of these pilots are astonishing! It was as though they moved as one aircraft when they performed formations. Afterwards, I was able to go to the O club & I met a few Blue Angels pilots! They were so nice and accommodating with so many ppl wanting to take a pic. Place was super lively and it was a great way to end the night!

MCAS Miramar is a USMC air station located in the San Diego Area. The base traces its lineage to…read morewell before WWII. After a variety of services used it as a home, in the 90's as p[art of the BRAC multiple USMC aviation units were consolidated there. The major unit there at present is the 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing which comprises a variety of aircraft and types. They have a museum which can be difficult to access and like most bases unless you are active service or have business there it is off limits. That being said they have a killer airshow that is a must see. From a spotting standpoint it is a tough one. There are not a lot of great close in spots. I get there are noise complaints. However, for most, you bough a house next to and around a major military aviation base, and it would have been in your disclosures when you signed off in it. SO not sure what all the complaints are. Retroactive NIMBYism at its finest

I've attend their meetings and spoken at their events and they just seem to "get it" when it comes to helping the area really thrive. Of course Bureaucracy can't be done away with but they make the processes a bit less painful and genuinely want to help you navigate your way to your answers. As a lover of local joints and authentic neighborhoods, and a former Oceanside resident, I'm so proud to see things evolving in the area.

What can I say about my hometown?! Though growing up here makes you crave the big city, since you…read moregrow weary of the sleepy suburbs, one cannot deny the peacefulness and convenience of RB. Main takeaways: -PUSD is an excellent public school district. -RB is a very safe community, patrolled by the San Diego Police Department. There is little crime, and fewer violent crimes. -There are a plethora of businesses. You can find just about anything in RB. They host several supermarkets, there are many bank branches, a public library, and a USPS branch, etc. Cons: -It's still a sleepy town - most everything closes early. -Nightlife is almost non-existent. Things are better now that Urge Gastropub and The Barrel Room are around (also check out their sister store, Brothers Provisions). -There are A TON of stodgy, old, well-to-do conservatives. They mostly drive 35mph on all public streets, and many commit the biggest pet peeve of mine: failing to effectively use the turn signal. All in all, its a fine neighborhood to start a family. It's a fine neighborhood to retire. It's boring as can be if you're 21-35.
