Rancho Penasquitos is a master planned community located in the Inland North County of San Diego. “PQ” as locals call it, is full of country charm in a suburban area. Downtown San Diego is approximately 25 miles away. Mira Mesa is to the South of PQ, and Poway is to the east. The newly connected 56 runs right through Rancho Penasquitos, making it much easier for residents to get to the coast, which is approximately 10 minutes away. Rancho Penasquitos is made up of 10,000 acres, of which 34% is open area and 51% is residential development. There is very little commercial space in the community.
Rancho Penasquitos real estate is made up of nice homes, mostly upscale tract homes built 15 to 20 years ago. Most home owners keep their landscaping nice and the power lines are underground, making Rancho Penasquitos a very pleasant area.
PQ is part of the Poway school district making it a great place to raise a family. One of the nation’s largest little leagues can be found here.
Small shopping centers provide for the necessities, but for other items residents travel the short distance to one of the neighboring cities.
