About Pacific Beach
Pacific Beach is a seaside community in greater San Diego, bound by La Jolla to the north and Mission Beach to the south. Known simply as PB to locals, Pacific Beach has long attracted college students, surfers, and younger crowds for leisure. However, given its prime location as far as beachside real estate goes, older and more affluent residents are beginning to call PB home. At any rate, Pacific Beach is a buzzing yet scenic neighborhood well worth a visit.
Fun fact: While the median age of San Diego residents is 33, Pacific Beach has a younger population with a median age of 30.
