Need to live close to the party? Us, too. We took a look at the Best New Bars in San Diego thanks to some help from our buddies at Thrillist, and over a nice cocktail of course, we figured out what it'll cost you to rent a one bedroom apartment within walking distance to the bar.

We’re excited to announce that we’re making it 100% FREE to pay your rent online with a debit card on RadPad. So why did we charge a fee in the first place and why are we doing away with it?
