    City - San Marcos

    You’ll want to add this premier Southern California suburbia to your wish list of places to live. With both mountain and ocean views, there’s nothing more scenic than living in this city. Enjoy upscale apartments, modern condos and townhomes, and houses for rent that resemble the west coast lifestyle. Palm trees, luxurious pools, and Southern California style permeate through these pristine rentals!

    San Marcos houses California State University San Marcos and Palomar College, and the city is known for its renowned public schools in the San Marcos Unified School District. If you’re commuting to nearby cities for work, such as San Diego, located just 35 miles south of town, you’ll appreciate access to major interstates and a light rail system.

    Let’s get back to San Marcos scenic views, shall we? Just a few miles east of the Pacific Ocean, this city boasts incredible ocean views that pair perfectly with views of Palomar Mountain and the Cleveland National Forest to the east.

    School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
