    "tons of people go for morning walks/jogs with both their kids and pets. a little slice of quiet in San Diego. The homes are overpriced for what they are however and I dont see that changing."

    "We have lived here for 3 years now since 2020. The area is quiet with plenty of kids due to the 3 different elementary schools, two middle schools, and one high school in the area. Military housing is close by as well though separate and in its own community. The apartments in the area are well maintained and ypu will usually spot several different people walking pets, jogging, or hiking to the various nearby trails. it's a great area if you can afford the overinflated home prices."

    "I like the fenced in backyard. That is the nicest feature. I like that there is poop stations to put your dog poop bags into every couple miles along the sidewalks. Not everyone follows the rules about picking up after their dogs though. "
