We looked at the newer Chula

[SkyRanchOwner]

We looked at the newer Chula Vista homes, but because of the commute time to Sorrento Valley, approx. $5 toll road for the 125, we chose to buy in Sky Ranch in Santee.

They are opening the 52 to connect right below the mountain, so the commute to Sorrento Valley will be about 30 minutes. With no traffic or traffic that is moving, I’ve made it in about 25-30 minutes from Sky Ranch.

For schooling, the private schools around the area would be best, but there are some decent public schools.

Here is a thread discussing the area:
