Otay Mesa, California

Otay Mesa

Otay Mesa is located close to the US / Mexico border, about 20 minutes south of Downtown San Diego. Home to around 32,000, Otay Mesa is poised for solid growth in years to come. The city is dedicated to maintaining some of its vast open space, much as the name indicates (Otay Mesa means wide level space). Otay Mesa is bordered by the Otay River to the north and the Tijuana River to the south. Freeway access is most easily found with the 805 freeway, although having Brown Field and the Tijuana International Airport so close, air travel may be the best option.
Otay Mesa real estate is made up of mostly tract homes and apartment buildings to house the rapidly increasing workforce. Many homes are newer and include modern amenities. With unobstructed views to the west, some hillside locations offer residents ocean views. As new companies move into the region, developers have been building east to accommodate increased demand.
Otay Mesa’s business climate is very strong. With the proximity to the border, Otay qualifies for certain tax breaks and trade qualifications that are very attractive to major corporations. Sony, Panasonic, and Samsung are some companies that operate out of Otay Mesa.
The growing population has spurred spending in the local school systems. Classrooms are renovated to become more technologically advanced. A new 38 acre, 50,000 square foot facility has been built to house Project Synergy – a partnership between Sweetwater Union High School District, the state and community colleges. The facility offers computer science and technology studies, as well as international business and child development classes to students of all ages.
