Local Knowledge, Shared Resources

Although I'm based in San Diego, some of the resources here may apply to your own situation—especially if you're navigating housing or urban planning concerns.

Blue Safety

After a bike accident in 2018 that left me with a broken leg, I began mapping out potentially hazardous areas in San Diego. I’ve since compiled a "jurisdiction area" list with insights from Caltrans and some city data. It’s designed to help others stay informed and safe—especially cyclists and pedestrians.

Bonus ADU Program

The Bonus ADU program was created in response to California’s housing crisis. San Diego took it further with its own approach—one that’s complex and often confusing. Based on firsthand experience dealing with the program's less obvious realities, I’ve put together a resource list including news links, key contacts, and official city info.
Because when it comes to programs like these, the devil really is in the details.
