We are currently living in a lovely gated community in Newport Beach. My DH has secured a fab position with a fab company so we are head to the North County area!!!

I would like a gated community, as he will be doing some traveling and I would be alone.

Can anyone recommend some areas we should consider looking at?


TIA!!!

Carlsbad/La Costa and Encinitas/Olivenhain have some gated communities. These neighborhoods are generally very safe, so you may feel ok with doing without gates if you find the right area. Good luck.

You really don't need gates in these areas.

I prefer installing home security alarm than gated community. I live in Bressi Ranch in Carlsbad. I love it, though we paid way too much for it back in 2005. Do you need a realtor? I know a good one!

It's pretty safe in La Costa/Bressi Ranch and the surrounding areas, you wouldn't really need to live in a gated community. My family has lived in La Costa since 1985. In our neighborhood, the only home invasion that I've ever heard of was a few years ago, and the people who did it were contractors that our neighbor hired while she was away on vacation.
