Hi Prasaghes: I am not sure exactly what you mean by a "CD Community". San Diego is a very friendly and accepting city as a whole. The Hillcrest area is the "gayborhood", so to speak. The Center (the local LGBT community center) is located there as well as a variety of restaurants, shops, etc. I believe that there is a group called Neutral Corner that meets regularly although I do not know where.
The LGBT Weekly is the local LGBT weekly newspaper. They list lots of events and activities.
Visit the Center where you can pick up a copy of the LGBT Weekly as well as other local and regional LGBT publications. You will also likely be able to get information on groups, activities, etc. there.
There are a few folks from San Diego on the boards here who might be able to answer more questions for you.
Best of luck to you; I found San Diego to be a great place to visit or to live and a very friendly and welcoming community to all in the LGBT world.
Thankyou so much ford the advice sweetie...... Are you currently in sd if not can you maybe set me up with some friends you may know from there?
Check this thread for people from SD and the surrounding area. There are alot. Also there is a Nuetral Corners org. for TG and, to a lesser exstent, CD's. I'm an hour + out from SD so I would have travel time issues.
Good Luck.

This is pretty much spot-on (coming from a local San Diegan)Originally Posted by VickysBFF
You are most welcome! I hope that it helps in some way. Unfortunately I am not in SD right now and I don't really have anyone that I can refer you to. Unfortunately San Diego pride is in July so it just passed. The one other thing that I thought of is that the Center does have two Transgender-specific events each year: the day of rememberance and the day of empowerment. I went to the day of empowerment either last year or the year before and if I recall correctly it was sometime close after Pride.Thankyou so much ford the advice sweetie...... Are you currently in sd if not can you maybe set me up with some friends you may know from there?
If it has not already happened I would recommend going. I met a lot of terrific people and got some good information as well.
And, there is a smaller Pride celebration in North County that may be coming up in Sept or Oct. I have not been myself but you may want to check it out.
Best of luck!
I know a bunch of SD peeps travel up to Long Beach for the monthly Hamburger Mary's event.

Neutral Corner is the local support / social group. Look it up online, they have been around for well over 20 years.
As for a "community", any metropolitan area is what you make of it.
