A charming suburban environment in San Diego’s inland hills.

Schools Trolley Public Transportation

Encanto is a large, hilly community about five miles inland from San Diego Bay. The landscape is primarily suburban, mostly filled with single-family homes and manicured lawns (though many apartments and condos can be found near Imperial Avenue). Numerous public schools serve the community, giving many local students the option to walk to class.

In addition to bus service, the trolley line has a stop at the intersection of Akins Avenue and 62nd Street, making it easy to get around the city. With the Gaslamp Quarter just ten minutes away and Ocean Beach less than half an hour down the road, San Diego’s greatest attractions are yours for the taking.
