"Townhomes on the edge of the park"

Rainswept Lane is home to a small subdivision of newer townhomes that back up to Mission Trails Regional Park. The good thing about this is that your back yard extends over acres of recreational land with trails for bikes, hiking, and rock climbing. The bad news is that coyotes and wildfires will have excellent access to you and your small pets.

"It's the Court that makes this street nice"

This is your basic San Diego suburban cul-de-sac. All of the homes are large, multi-story, single-family houses with yards and big garages. Years ago, the owners of the homes surrounding the canyon behind the cul-de-sac got together and bought the canyon land from the city, thus preserving the quiet and the view, and preventing further development.

"Primary commercial corridor"

It starts way out east in La Mesa. It goes through the San Diego State neighborhoods. It goes through some rougher, low-income neighborhoods. It goes through the up and coming North Park. It goes through the hipster-infested gayborhood of Hillcrest, and finally ends in the old, beautiful Mission Hills. Miles and miles of businesses, services, and stop lights.

"Charming older neighborhood"

Mountain View Drive in San Diego is a long, windy street that follows the curve of Mission Valley on it's southern plateau. The entire stretch of road is covered with older homes. On the north side of the street, the homes are built on the edge of the valley. On the south side, they are similarly old and charming, but without the views. Many sections of Mountain View are an easy walk to basic local services, but some are more suburban.

"Years in the making"

11th Ave runs more or less north/south from the southern edge of Mission Valley, past Balboa Park and into the East Village neighborhood of Downtown. Great services, including trolley, grocery and bars and restaurants surround, but it is also the one-way street that leads from PetCo Park baseball stadium to major freeways.

"Looks like the suburbs, cross the bridge into the city"

Hayes Avenue is truly the best of all worlds. Just two blocks from Hillcrest and all the amenities of that great neighborhood, you have to walk across the pedestrian bridge to get there. This means that you can live in a quiet, safe, pretty, clean, charming old neighborhood, and still walk less than 5 minutes to bars, restaurants, grocery and other amenities.

"The best of urban living in San Diego"

4th Ave runs from the Southern edge of Mission Valley through Hillcrest, Banker's Hill, Downtown, the Gaslamp and ends at the waterfront Convention center. Most of the street is a great combination of restaurants and local services, along with office space and rental/owned housing. No matter where you are on 4th Ave, you're never more than a few blocks from whatever you may need!

"Ozzie and Harriet Live on Danbury Way"

This neighborhood is stable, safe, and quiet. There is very low turnover in the homes, so most of the families have lived there for a long time. It's easy to see which houses have been renovated/remodeled, since it was a new development in the 50's. A great place to settle down, if you are the suburban type.
