Escondido is located in a valley surrounded by coastal mountains and filled with palm trees. Avocado and citrus groves spread out from Escondido, and beautiful lakes hidden by cliffs helps create a landscape that feels more pastoral than urban -- even though Escondido is only 30 miles northeast of Downtown San Diego.
As one of San Diego County's oldest cities, Escondido incorporated in 1888. It was settled long before that, and a key battle of the Mexican-American war was fought in Escondido in 1846. Today, the city is a sought-after community with a variety of parks, including the 3,058-acre Daley Ranch. Here, visitors enjoy hiking, horseback riding, and mountain biking.
Escondido apartments are very popular -- and not just because of the city's great location and beautiful scenery. The city features several boutique wineries, three weekly farmer's markets, and a fantastic downtown filled with art galleries, shops, and top-rated restaurants. It is also home to great destinations like the San Diego Zoo Safari Park and the San Diego Archaeological Center. After moving to Escondido, make one of your first stops Queen Califia's Magical Circle -- the artistic whimsy will inspire you.

Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
