Hey gold_dredger_phd…I’m in Torrey Highlands, off 56 and Camino Del Sur. I rent in the Bellardo complex, which is just behind the Albertsons shopping center.

I’m renting an 1800 sq. ft., 3BR+den townhome here from the owner for $2,000/mo. I’ll admit that I think I’m a bit below the average as I heard the place next to me rented for $2,500. Still, I think you can find a decent place around here for about $2,200 or so. I’ve seen quite a few For Rent signs. You should walk the area and write down some phone numbers. You should also do the same in your area, or nearby neighborhoods. I bet you could find houses for rent for what you’re paying.
