You're in San Diego, a half-continent away from a decent fish fry
or a respectable dish of frozen custard. Fear not.
Other Wisconsinites have managed to work their way around the
culture shock. You can, too.
In some ways, San Diego is a lot like Milwaukee, says Divina
Infusino, a Kenosha native who left the shores of Lake Michigan for
the Pacific Ocean breezes 13 years ago. Infusino works as a
national editor for a web-based city guide in San Diego.

is often cast as the poor stepsister to Los Angeles.
Like Milwaukee, San Diego is rich in cultural diversity.
