Nashville to San Diego

My husband and I are planning our move to SD in the next year to be closer to my family in Encinitas and trying to decide the best area. We have a 3 year old and 1 year old and make $250k combined. We both work remote and he will need to commute once a week to Solana Beach. Looking for 3-4 bedrooms and some type of backyard with grass for our 2 dogs. What areas would you recommend to look to rent?
