    "Crest is great neighborhood. It feels like a small town but in the city. When you drive up the hill you’re met with a beautiful view of the valley. There’s a school, small convenience store, a mom and pops Mexican restaurant, a gas station, and a little park for kids all on one road."

    "The Crest Community is a well kept secret in San Diego County. Better views...better temperatures ... 5 minutes to the bottom of the hill to get on the freeway at 8 & Greenfield. 25 minutes from San Diego airport downtown. 20 minutes from Alpine (closer if take the back road). Excellent neighbors. Community events are held on a regular basis. Hiking, biking and horse trails surround us. "
