Why Live in Highland

Highland in San Luis Obispo sits a few miles northwest of downtown and about 1 mile west of Cal Poly, making it a convenient spot for students, professors, families, and retirees. Homes range from modest midcentury ranch-style houses and bungalows in the southeast to larger custom builds from the 1980s and 1990s closer to Bishop Peak. Many older properties have been updated, and accessory dwelling units (ADUs) are common near the Cal Poly side. Lots in the southeast are often 6,000 to 8,000 square feet, while the northern area tends to have larger parcels, sometimes around a quarter acre. Highland has direct access to Bishop Peak trailheads, with hikes from about 2 to 4 miles round-trip, and the nearly 3-acre Throop Park adds a playground, baseball field, and open lawn. The neighborhood is in the highly rated San Luis Coastal Unified School District; local children may attend Bishop’s Peak Elementary through a lottery system, then move on to Laguna Middle and San Luis Obispo High, both of which also earn strong ratings. Everyday needs are met along nearby Foothill Boulevard with California Fresh Market, Raku Ramen, Milestone Tavern, Scout Coffee, and SloDoCo Donuts, while downtown brings more things to do, including the weekly Downtown SLO Farmers Market, seasonal Music in the Plaza, the San Luis Obispo Museum of Art, and the Fremont Theater. Highland is bordered by Highway 1, served by SLO Transit bus routes, and lies within about 2 miles of Adventist Health Sierra Vista and 5 miles of San Luis Obispo County Regional Airport.
