    "To La Jolla. Depending on time can be horrible and up to 50 mins. 56 is always crowded. Not much else to say. "
  • Allison Jean
    "Our neighborhood has a very quiet, surburban feel. We know most of our neighbors since my family has lived here 10 years now. It used to be mostly older folks but younger families have been moving in in recent years. Totally inaccessible by public transport, but beautiful views of the mountains and close to Lake Poway. "
  • Allison Jean
    "The commute to downtown where I work tends to take around 30 minutes, keeping in mind that I don’t work a regular 9 to 5 schedule. It’s not bad. "
  • Nick
    "We feel safe here. There are plenty of kids around. It’s also very walkable. Never felt unsafe on a night walk"
  • Matt Burr
    "No off leash dogs are allowed at the park. Also, the streets are flat with street lights so that is great"
  • Jessica H.
    "Dog friendly city altogether! Local dog park, shops and boarding for dogs. everyone for the most part picks up after their dogs."
  • Mike C.
    "Lots of trails and daycares, plus dog parks galore. Dogs are everywhere, so it’s a very dog-friendly scene."
  • Jase A.
    "Great schools and friendly neighbors. Poway has plenty of parks, recreation, dog parks and other activities. "
  • Jeffrey S.
    "Quiet, lots of things to do and see. Nice parks. Schools and community. Nice farmers market in old poway. "
  • Sarah C.
    "Different parts of poway are more family friendly than others. Check them out during non school hours "
  • Coffee.lady.sd18
    "Ok. Once you’re in Poway you’re in Poway it’s kinda a drive to go elsewhere. I work downtown and it’s a 45 min drive with traffic. People are pretty friendly here and kind. I feel relatively safe living here. Anyway getting to and from the freeway can be a bit slow that’s my only real gripe."
  • Yourgirljen
    "It’s a very kid friendly and family oriented neighborhood with amazing schools, activities and lots to do. "
  • Davdawez
    "A good number of homes in high valley have horses yet you never see anybody out riding,, we’re from Texas and have lived here since January, haven’t seen many friendly folks as of yet,, I grew up in so cal,, lived in Texas 28 yrs,, California certainly has changed "
  • Ray V.
    "Lots of well maintined parks, great library, lots of family events and fantastic schools. Most neighborhoods do not have an HOA or Mello Roos, but are maintained well. The Old Poway Park is a place that attracts kids and families from all over San Diego county, and has probably the finest Farmers markets."
  • Raquelina M. R.
    "Safe, quiet and green . Beautiful view around. Golf courses and restaurant of hight quality ! A lot of Senior houses ."
  • Michele
    "I've lived here since 2006. Peaceful area. Friendly neighbors, but they don't impose on anyone, so if you're an introvert, that's respected, too. Within walking distance to movie theaters, nice restaurants, ice cream and frozen yogurt shops, drug store and grocery stores. Hiking trails right outside the entrance to the community. Also within about 2 miles of the I-15 which has a carpool and toll road south to San Diego (10-15 min. drive) and north to surrounding destinations. Also has highest rated school district in the county!"
  • Azure V.
    "I grew up here and I felt rather safe. A note for high school parents, though, there are small groups of students at Poway high that enjoy smoking pot secretly, among other things."
  • Sammy_lanning
    "4th of July, concerts in the park, Poway Rodeo, Poway Days parade and Kaminsky’s for Sunday football games. "
  • Sam
    "I live in RB north and work is in POWAY just 2 miles away. Easy commute and no traffic. I stay off the freeways and drive my gas guzzler. "
  • Mrs. Kraus
    "Great family friendly and safe neighborhood. If you have kids PUSD is a great district in comparison to some others in Southern California. "
  • Manat
