One of the great perks of relocating temporarily for work is the opportunity to see new places and experience new cultures by becoming a local rather than just a tourist.  Getting acquainted to a new place as a long-term guest gives you the chance to really soak in the vibes in a way that you simply can’t achieve as a short-term visitor, and few industries lend themselves to this lifestyle better than healthcare.

If you’re a healthcare professional looking for a contract in a new location that provides industry opportunities as well as off-the-clock activities, there are few cities more accommodating than San Diego. Hotels may dot the coast from Imperial Beach to Oceanside, but if you prefer the feeling of really coming home at the end of a long shift, consider PC Housing for your San Diego housing needs.

PC Housing’s collection of San Diego corporate housing communities gives healthcare professionals a more comfortable and customizable living option while enjoying America’s Finest City.  Plus, San Diego isn’t called the #1 craft beer city in the country for nothing. Nurses and doctors who love imbibing with a delicious glass of craft beer can do no better than San Diego for their next assignment. With countless breweries and brewpubs calling San Diego home, there’s plenty to love (and sip) in SoCal.

No matter where you find yourself in San Diego, there seems to be a brewery right around the corner. We’ve put together a list of breweries near healthcare centers in each region of San Diego to make your next after-work drink a memorable one, and with plenty of San Diego PC Housing locations dotted across the region, you’ll never be far from home either!
