We are planning on moving to San Diego from Miami. My husband will be making at the beginning around $4000/month and I have a home business bringing in around $1200/month. We are young parents of a 14 year-old boy and a 11 year-old girl. We are active, my son is a drummer my girl is a soccer player gifted students both, we are very social, enjoy putting the kids in bed and having some quality time for us like in a near by restaurant or bar, if we could go walking would be a dream!. Taking in consideration all those facts...May I have ideas were should we live, I know is very expensive, but would LOVE somewhere close to the ocean, but our priorities are the children schools.
Thank you for your time replying! :)

Hey!
I'm 13, and my family relocated to San Diego from NY last August, and I love it here! : )
My family is kinda like yours. My mom really wanted a good school district, she's nuts about the best schools for us, and a good place for me and my sisters and not too expensive, but nice.
We are in Encinitas and 3 miles from the ocean, and San Dieguito School District is very good, 2nd best probably only to Poway (which I would not recommend, because it is really far Inland, and it gets amazingly hot.) I would recommend the Encinitas/ La Costa/Olivenhain area. It is a little bit cheaper than Delmar and La Jolla, but just as nice. very affordable.
My middle school, Diegueno, is great, and I'm a "gifted kid" too. They have honors classes in Math and English, and... yeah. it has about 900 students, 30 per class except for the honors classes, 25 students for those. the teachers give lots of help if you need it, they challenge us. there are a lot of clubs at lunch that you can join, or just eat lunch with you friends in the quad, or the grassy area and stuff. the school is very cooperative, and also they have many elective choices, semester or year long. there is something for everybody. I love it!
my sisters go to Flora Vista elementary, one of the best elementarys in the EUSD. it's really nice, they have great teachers, and they also have combined classes (ex. 4th/5th) and everyone switches out for math to their level. the teachers challenge them, help them, and they like parental involvement. they offer lots of programs too, that's how my sisters got started on karate. (btw, they're 8 and 9, going into 3rd and 5th grade) sports, also. parents are really nice, my parents made lots of friends here in a short amount of time.
i don't know much about the high schools yet but you can choose your high school out of 4, i believe. there is LCC (la costa canyon) which is where lots of people go. they are the sporty school, because they have the most sports-oriented program, but they also have good academics. most of the other kids who don't go to LCC go to SDA (san dieguito academy) which is more academic-oriented, but they also have a wide selection of sports. they also have a theater and arts programs. then there is canyon crest academy, which is the newest and it's great! they have great technology and athletics and academics and arts. it's a lot of people's favorite. last is TPHS (torrey pines high school) and not many people go there at all. pretty much just a normal high school.
Our neighborhood has 3 different parks in walking distance, and they all have playgrounds and trails and grassy area. Two have community pools and tennis courts.its also a very safe area, encinitas has a low crime rate and everybody's always out, and most kids walk or bike to and from school with friends or hang out with their friends after school at the parks. There're great views in this area of the mountains and canyons and everything. The beach is close, it takes about 5 minutes to get there by car (we went yesterday to moonlight beach, pretty nice!) it's clean, and there's easy parking and fire pits and tables and it's just a great beach. there are a lot of nice resteraunts, and if you come here, try leucadia pizza, it's the best! : ) downtown encinitas is really nice, too. lots of places over there.
everyone here walks, it's great weather for it too, and it's easy to get around because most of the streets have sidewalks, bike lanes, and spaces for cars to park also. encinitas rec and the schools offer lots of programs and sports that are at different levels, most of our sport teams are some of the top in the area : )
if you're religious there are also a bunch of churches and temples around in encinitas, we go to san dieguito united methodist church, and it's 2 blocks from the beach, so we usually go there afterwards, it's very welcoming, and they have a great kids program and youth stuff.
if you want more information, edit your question asking for more on encinitas area and i'll tell you as much as i can! i hope this helped you and i'm sorry it's so long, but i think where we are is also a great place for you guys! : )
