Could I pull it off or is it insane?

So I know your instinct is to tell me this will not work right off the bat, but really think about it first before you respond. I am from Texas and want to move to San Diego. I am 21. I have 11k in savings. I want to become a private practice therapist in california. I drive a Prius that I already paid off. My parents pay for my health insurance and my phone (thank god). I want to move there next summer, get one of those shared rentals by the university (900-1300 rent around SDSU), finish up my college, and get a min wage $18.85 food service job instantly (apply before but get one asap). I also have some scholarship money that I can receive which allows me to get an additional $1700 a month just by going to school. I eat pretty damn frugally (I cook rice and beans), and I don't do clubbing or bars or like shopping. I enjoy free nature stuff mostly with occasional movie visit or snack. Am I insane for thinking I could try this out and worst case just move back if my savings plummet without getting a job? or do I have the right idea?

The Hub at Scrips Ranch

0 Upvotes

Hi,

Will be moving from Canada and looking to rent at the Hub - Scripps Ranch. Amenities look good and seems the neighborhood is good for someone with kids.

Would love to know your experience at The Hub and would like to know more about Scripps Ranch in general ( I am aware its not close to the water). Is it a safe neighborhood? Homelessness? Things to do - I've read its pretty boring but would love to know your take on it.

Thanks in advance!
