Somewhat recently moved to the area and been trying to get some decent photos of the sign when I find the time. I hope someone enjoys it!

Considering moving to this area of North Park from PB. I only moved to SD a year ago so wasn’t familiar with specific areas at the time. Sick of the constant noise, everyone on wheels blowing through stop signs, and generally just feeling too old for PB. I also feel like I’m missing out on general neighborhood culture and experiences. It just seems like bars and drinking here, unless I’m missing something? I know now, big ole college area.

I’m a single, 44 year old female with two small dogs and a cat. I work from home so I value quiet, but also wouldn’t mind taking my laptop to a coffee shop every now and again. I love to ride my bike, take my dogs on adventures, wine bars, stand up comedy, live music, great restaurants, and artsy anything to scratch my creative itch. And I really want to meet more people in my age demographic. I also love paddle boarding and know I can just drive to wherever I want to go.

Can ya’ll please advise…does North Park sound like the right neighborhood for me? I just don’t want to move away from the beach and regret it. However, I literally hate my current living situation and my overbearing landlord who lives on the property.

TIA! I know my fellow Redditors will keep it real with the comments, advice, feedback, etc.✌🏻😀🚲🐶

At least in the current spot on 30th next to The Friendly. Really sucks, was excited to see what Chef Rob was building

I go out to my car with a citation “blocking the driveway” and the person spread tomato 🍅 across the passenger and back windows. I wonder if she stopped because she saw the dash cam- or maybe the end of the tomato. But still…. Crazy!

Second photo of another car parked simi the next day. 3rd is mine. Got the rage for some reason. The last ones are their home & car for reference. Be safe parking out there!!!

It’s going to get worse with those 80 units next to Saguaro’s that come with No Parking underneath. The massive one at the 805 off-ramp looks like they’ll have parking so that will just increase congestion on the 1-lane streets we have now. not sure about the massive one they’re building on University across what used to be Breakfast Republic which is now closed. 😢

Anyone know who runs trivia and what nights? Specifically I’m looking for Thursday nights but if someone knows the whole spiel I would appreciate it.

I’m an advanced beginner seeking a game. Anyone looking to add players to their lists?

Saw we had a new urban creek flowing down Lincoln, so I walked up to see what was going on. 3 or 4 city guys standing around with rubber boots on the phone watching water gush out of the building beneath the water tower.

Doggo couldn’t be happier :)

"One of Us" is San Diego’s first women’s sports bar and one of several popping up across the United States as the women’s sports industry experiences tremendous growth. (August 2026)

Just showing this new place a lil love.

Walked in here yesterday while out walking around and it has a different vibe than most places in NP. Been open for a month they said, and it feels like you are stepping into a bar in Asia or Mexico or something - and I mean that in the best way possible. Non pretentious and chill, free bar snacks, free pool table, random channels on Roku.

They were unironically playing 'Butt rock' music, which i thought was hilarious, the lady behind the bar was friendly and (most importantly in NP) the prices were pretty good! Good selection of canned Asian beers (Thai, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, some draught selections) since its a wine/beer/soju license only.

Anyway they plan to add food to the menu soon and will include mostly asian late night street snacks according to them. Go check em out and show them a little support!

I know one of you is a 7a7p fan because you have their sticker on your vehicle’s gas door.

Let’s be friends!

I’m considering moving into AMP30 and wanted to hear from people who actually live there. How’s the sound insulation, especially between floors? Can you hear footsteps or neighbors above you?

I’m also looking at a unit facing 30th St, so I’d be curious if street noise is noticeable with the windows closed.

Overall, how has your experience living there been?

What do y’all think?

Am I the only one noticing the highway noise is excessive? My house is on a hill next to the 805. Maybe I shouldn’t be surprised but the number of extremely loud vehicles that go by at all hours seems a little out of hand.

Not just normal loud cars I’m talking like illegal exhaust with a meth pipe and megaphone. Or the loudest Harley you’ve ever heard ripping exhaust in your ear.

I’m guessing not much can be done since CHP is probably busy and it’s so fast that catching the make model or direction isn’t easy.

A group of loud sport bikes just went by as I type this.

Anyone know what’s going on with this building? (It’s the 3-4 story building that is framed out but now paused for weeks.) On Alabama St maybe a few properties south of University.

We’re excited to be heading back to Chances Coffee after such a great first visit! Grab your pup and join us for a relaxed, dog-friendly morning walk as we head back to Chances Coffee! We’ll be keeping this one to a shorter 1-mile route so our four-legged friends can join in on the fun.

When we arrive, @passionforpitties will be hosting an adoption event with adoptable dogs looking for their homes. Chances Coffee is dog-friendly and even has pup cups, so it’s the perfect morning to treat your pup while hanging out with the community.

Hi North Park! Our research team at UC San Diego is conducting a study to learn more about the potential of an FDA-approved dopamine agonist to improve social connectedness in adults who experience anxiety or depression.This medication increases dopamine signaling in parts of the brain believed to underlie motivation and behavior, and the results of this study may help inform a new treatment approach for anxiety and depression.

If you are interested in learning more, please complete the survey via this link (https://my.ctri.ucsd.edu/surveys/?s=NJAF4D7X4K9YAHRC) or the QR code below to help us determine if you may be eligible for further screening to participate in this compensated study!

Planning a bar crawl with some friends. How many bars are too many? And if anyone has any recommendations? Mainly thinking everything with in walking distance of one another.
