Why Live in Central Encinitas

Central Encinitas is a vibrant coastal California community known for its picturesque bluffs, hillside views and bustling downtown area. The community has a diverse range of home styles, including newly built condominiums, hillside duplexes, modest ranches and large contemporary single-family homes. The Encinitas Union Elementary School District and San Dieguito Union High School District serve the area, with highly rated schools such as Paul Ecke-Central Elementary and San Dieguito High School Academy. Central Encinitas is home to many parks and green spaces, including Oakcrest Park, Sun Vista Park, Las Verdes Park and the newly opened Encinitas Community Park.

The neighborhood's retail corridor, El Camino Real, has large shopping plazas, while Downtown 101 along Coast Highway 101 has upscale restaurants, cafes, boutiques and bars. People spend their free time at the historic La Paloma Theater or attend community events, like the Encinitas Moonlight Marketplace or the Switchfoot Bro-Am surf competition.
