To me it feels like Iowa on the Pacific, or maybe how LA/OC felt 40-50 years ago.
And obviously there are big demographic differences, with Miami's Carribean and Jewish communities and SD's WASP, Mexican and Asian communities.
Also, Miami feels like a really small version of a global metropolis, while SD feels like a really big version of a small town.

Good assessment. Other than bordering an ocean, the two have very little in common. Miami is loud and in your face, SD is more subdued typical laid back Southern California.
