San Diego’s vibrant Barrio Logan is a treasure trove of art and culture.

Military • Coastal • Artistic • Historic • Trendy •

Formerly San Diego’s waterfront warehouse district, Barrio Logan has emerged over the last few decades as a thriving cultural center for the city. Numerous local galleries and the popular Barrio Art Crawl have raised Barrio Logan’s profile as a hotspot for artistic talent in San Diego, which is also on display in the huge, iconic murals of Chicano Park.

The north end of the neighborhood is practically across the street from the Gaslamp Quarter, giving folks easy access to the city’s nightlife and entertainment epicenter, and Balboa Park is only a few blocks away as well.

The location on San Diego Bay puts Barrio Logan conveniently close to Naval Base San Diego and the other local military facilities, making it an excellent location for service members and civilian military employees.

Barrio Logan didn't just change within the environment but the vibe changed. The welcome smiles on Saturday nights in the Flea market, the mini stores open during the night and the delicious tacos in many places.

I like the fact that there is a park in the middle of the community, that serves as a place for people to meet. There is also a market where fresh tortillas and other treats are made. Recently, there had been the addition of a couple of microbreweries added to the community. People here support their local businesses, including restaurants, markets and fast food places.

I am very concerned with the safety of the neighborhood, as a mother I rarely allow my kids to walk around the neighborhood. We have had in the past reports of young girls being raped and/or kidnapped while walking home from school. There is an increase of people living out of their cars or camper trailers and they park near our neighborhood schools. The police don't do anything about this problem.
