    "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. "

    "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."

    "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."

    "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!"
