Carmel Valley, California
Carmel Valley Homes for Sale are in a master planned community that began with the institutional name “North City West.” The area, positioned roughly half-way up the San Diego County coastline, is convenient to almost everything. Carmel Valley Real Estate is located adjacent to the beaches at Del Mar and Torrey Pines Reserve with UCSD and its surrounding biotech and communications industries only minutes away. To the south lie Sorrento Valley and La Jolla's Golden Triangle, which are large employment centers complete with a shopping mall and many fine restaurants. A quick twenty minute drive south brings you to the airport, downtown San Diego. Route SR-56 connects the community with the eastern suburbs of San Diego—Poway, Rancho Bernardo, Escondido and more. The weather here is great, as long as you don't like much change. A warm summer day might be in the 75-80s, with a cold winter day in the 50s. Of course, it almost always gets cool at night (so, bring a sweater!), and we get lots of fog and clouds. The weather is really controlled by the nearby Pacific Ocean, which moderates the temperature and keeps the humidity up (humidity tends to be 70% to 90%). Of course, we don't get much rain (10 inches per year on average). People come to Carmel Valley for the schools, which are some of the best in the nation. It may surprise new residents that the schools are not San Diego city schools, and there is not a single school district that is responsible for Carmel valley residents. The Solana Beach School District covers the elementary schools in the northern part of Carmel Valley. The Del Mar Union School District covers the elementary schools in the southern part of Carmel Valley. The district has schools in the hills just west of I-5, and a number of schools in Carmel Valley including Carmel Del Mar, Ashley Falls, Sage Canyon, Torrey Hills and Ocean Air Elementary. Surprisingly, none of the schools operated by the Del Mar Union School District are actually in the City of Del Mar! Carmel Valley Middle School and Torrey Pines High School (the number one high school in San Diego County) are operated by the San Dieguito School District. The events and entertainment in Carmel Valley are centered around the parks and the library. The Carmel Valley Library presents two different music series and many activities for kids (story times, arts & crafts, book clubs and more.) The Recreation Center hosts many classes and activities for kids and adults, including swim lessons, dance, team sports, art, gymnastics and bridge. Of course, there are a number of restaurants Carmel Valley and a single movie theater, with more being easily accessible via the freeway. Carmel Valley has three shopping centers, with more on the way (south of SR-56). The existing centers are Del Mar Highlands, Piazza Carmel and Carmel Country Plaza. Additional shopping is available to the north, along El Camino Real in Encinitas; and to the south at UTC (University Towne Center). UTC is the most accessible shopping mall, and contains Nordstrom, Sears and Macys. The area is developing into one of the most desirable commercial zones in the county. Numerous commercial buildings house corporate offices for companies such as Pardee, Peregrine and Oracle. Carmel Valley sits at the intersection of I-5 and I-805, immediately north of La Jolla's "Golden Triangle," and UCSD. Rancho Santa Fe, La Jolla, Del Mar and Fairbanks Ranch are all easily accessible. Given the prime location and the access to good schools and upscale housing, this is one of the most desirable areas in San Diego. If your willing to trade a bit more traffic for the convenience of being close to the beach and access to I-5 than Carmel Valley is a good contender!
