Sorry Caly I am all discombobulated today. The park on the south side of Calle Cristobal overlooks Lopez Canyon. In fact it is called Lopez Canyon park… doh! The canyon north of Calle Cristobal on the east end near Camino Ruiz is the Penasquitos Preserve. That new (well more then a year old now) park overlooking the preserve (which is a great park to take the kids to) is the park where my wife saw some illegals one time. The other park to the west overlooking Lopez is where we have seen some more kid/hood types but very sparingly and at night. Probably ghosts of myself in my high school days.

I am looking at rentals in Park Village – and along Calle Cristobal and other areas of PQ, as well as north of 56. Found one in Park Village but the owner had let it get very run down and was in denial that it needed anything. Very sad because it was a cute house.

I work for a large computer company – probably shouldn’t be advertising their name on the forum though.

Crazy urban legends. Those are neither homeless people nor immigrants coming out of the canyons, they are "chupacacabra".

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chupacabra

Now that we've cleared that up, I live in the area half-way between those two parks on Calle Cristobal, and have owned here since 1998. I've never seen a single homeless person but migrants come and go, mostly minding their own business and laying low. The 7-11 on Cam. Ruiz is where they gather and where you can witness daily the law-biding 'mericans' contractor trucks pull up to hire them as work crews (yes even now).

I often jog alone through the canyons as do many other people (including women) and aside from the deer, snakes, coyotes, birds, and chupacabra I don't see much going on.

In the 9 years I've been here there was one home invasion robbery where the suspects were caught and charged with murder only because the cop speeding after them broadsided a woman in her car and she died (apparently the robbers didn't have Paris Hilton's lawyer).

Every other month or so a drag racer wraps himself around a tree, at one point Calle Cristobal had more road deaths than any other SD road. Whenever this happens the neighbors gather 'round and roast marshmallows in the fiery aftermath of Darwinian elimination while we thank the stars if only the driver was killed. Then for months afterwards people (presumably loved ones of the deceased) decorate the latest death-tree with flowers.

Anyhow, that's the 'hood in the nutshell. It's only dangerous if you are a street racer, a tree, a goat, or don't like marshmallows.

‘Goat Sucker’??? Oh my, oh my. Maybe I should look in another area?

Just kidding! Still looking for a rental. Amazed at what people are putting out there for rent – dirty, run down, homes and, yet, by the time I get to see them they have 2 or 3 apps on them already! And they actually rent them for ridiculous prices!

Sigh… and the search continues.

Hi All:

A lot of useful information in this thread about this area. How about some info about schools?

Does anyone know how good the elementary school serving this area (Sandburg elementary) is?

How about Middle (Challenger) and high schools (Mira Mesa High)? I know that Mira Mesa high has had some bad reputation before. Has it changed?

Thanks
