City - El Cajon

A suburb of San Diego, El Cajon is a scenic city nestled in a valley and surrounded by mountainous terrain, nicknamed “The Box” for its secluded feel. Located about 17 miles east of Downtown San Diego, El Cajon is an ideal choice for commuters. Residents have easy access to public bus routes, Interstate 8, and Highways 125 and 52. In addition to job opportunities in San Diego, there are so many shopping, dining, and entertainment options as well.

El Cajun resides near Mission Trails Regional Park and Harry Griffen Park, so outdoor adventure is always around the corner. Locals can shop the 170 stores at Parkway Plaza, watch the annual Air Show San Diego event at Gillespie Field, try their luck at the Sycuan Casino, or catch some air at Kennedy Skate Park. Residents appreciate the community events in Downtown El Cajon, such as the weekly Cajun Classic Cruise, the summertime Dinner and a Concert Series, the annual HauntFest, America on Main, and the Mother Goose Parade.

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.
