Rancho Penasquitos Reviews

The school district and neighbor hood makes it a great place to raise a family. Although housing can be costly, there are still a few areas that can accommodate low to moderate income. People there remain active, I always see someone running, biking or walking their dog. Generally its a safe and welcome place to live if you like a quiet neighborhood.
