Not to be mistaken for its more northerly namesake, this Southern California community is beautiful and rapidly growing. Located in the northern part of the county, Carmel Valley is actually a subdivision of the city itself. Home to approximately 40,000 residents, Carmel Valley is just east of Del Mar, only two miles from the beach and minutes from Interstate 5. Neighboring communities include Torrey Hills, Del Mar Mesa and Pacific Highlands Ranch. San Diego real estate options consist of townhouses, modest single-family homes and sprawling estate homes. The economy of Carmel Valley is varied and thriving. Many businesses in cutting-edge fields such as the biomedical, telecommunications and software industries have made their home here. The community provides a recreation center that offers classes and programs for children, a public pool, sports fields, tennis courts and a library that hosts concerts at least once a month. Students enrolled in K-12 receive an exceptional education in the two well-respected elementary school districts, Del Mar Union and Solana Beach School District that serve this community, as well as in the award winning San Dieguito Union High School District. Many colleges and universities are in close proximity for those wishing to attain a higher degree.
