Neighborhood

About 10 miles northeast of downtown San Diego, Allied Gardens feels like a laid-back suburban paradise, but underneath that relaxing exterior lies a neighborhood with plenty of exciting places to see. Living in one of the many rentals along Mission Gorge Road puts you right in the thick of things. You can walk or drive to San Diego Brewing company for a bite and a brew, grab a steak at Longhorn Bar and Grill, or spend an evening shooting some pool at the Library.

Take advantage of that amazing San Diego weather by visiting Allied Gardens Park and Recreation Center during the daytime. Both the park and the rec center hold frequent events, including the always-entertaining Summer Movies in the Park. Book lovers in this neighborhood appreciate the rec center's BookNook program, which lets them pick a new book and leave one of their own.
