Sorry I am on mobile, but thanks for steering me away from Torrey garden apartments.
Being in Carmel valley it is surprising to see that it has bad reviews specially the theft.

We are not set on any location yet but would like to stay a bit closer to take advantage of being close to family which is why we want to temporarily relocate there and hopefully make a permanent move.

We are open to renting townhouse or sfh.

I think anything along the 56 should be good. Is Rancho penesquitos really 10 degrees hotter than the coast?

We are most confused about schools (kindergarten) and if we decide to come in August will they still enroll us?

We want to save money and not send to private schools. As we will be paying mortgage on our house in the east coasts nd eating that cost while also paying high renting in San Diego.

Airbnb is not any cheaper and I am not seeing anything less than $3000, La Jolla is close to 4-5k.
