San Diego county real estate
City: Lakeside


Horses and hills define the subdivisions of Lakeside. Some beautiful new view homes are interspersed with older, country-feel ranchettes in the hills, with apartments and mobile homes in the flatlands. Pickups and horse trailers are the road vehicles of choice, and the Lakeside Rodeo is the big event of the year. The commute to San Diego is a bit long, typically a half-hour if there's no traffic -- and that's a big if. ZIP Code: 92040. Population: 39,729. Median income: $42,000.

The wet and wild waterslide rides are a key attraction at Marshal Scotty Playland Park in Lakeside.
