I long considered Mt. Helix because of the big lots and country feeling but after living in Del Cerro, I think Mt. Helix is way too far out. The 8 Freeway is a nightmare during rush hour. Mt. Helix is also REALLY hot in the summer. Unless you don’t have to commute west and don’t mind spending big bucks to keep cool in the summer, I wouldn’t recommend Mt. Helix.
