San Diego, CA
Southern California beach city - year-round coastal STR demand
San Diego is Southern California's most STR-friendly major beach city, combining 70 miles of coastline, near-perfect year-round weather, and neighborhoods like Pacific Beach, Mission Beach, Ocean Beach, and La Jolla that each support distinct STR market profiles. The city regulates STRs through a tiered permit system - whole-home rentals require a license and are subject to availability caps in some zones.
