You’ll find a total of eight districts in Downtown San Diego; each offers residents and tourists a different appeal. Although the entire area is just one square mile, it still feels much larger, and this is because of the unique strengths that each district brings to the table.
When you consider the popularity of the Gaslamp Quarter or the well-known Marina District, then you will understand why many people have decided to settle here.
