Known as the “Island in the Hills” because of the clear boundaries between residential dwellings and open spaces, Tierrasanta is a thriving area of upper-scale single family homes and condominiums built on canyons and foothills surrounded by open public land. A number of green belts with walking paths run through the canyons and residents enjoy three shopping centers, an excellent recreation center, a San Diego branch library, a research park, several excellent elementary and junior high schools, as well as Junipero Serra High School, which was named one of the 250 best high schools in America by Newsweek Magazine for the 2004-2005 school year.

Tierrasanta real estate is diverse and affordable with spacious condominiums, townhouses and thoughtfully designed single-family homes just 20 minutes from downtown San Diego. Residents have an easy commute; Tierrasanta is bounded on the north by freeway 52 and the Marine Corps Air Station at Miramar, on the east by the 5800 acre Mission Trails Regional Park, one of the largest civic parks in the country, with its 40 miles of networked hiking, biking and equestrian trails, on the west by Interstate 15, and on the south by steep canyons overlooking the San Diego River and Mission Valley.
