East County


Just east of the sprawling San Diego metro area sits a growing enclave of East County CA Houses for Sale. This area is home to towns such as Alpine, El Cajon, Lemon Grove and Spring Valley, which are a little more rural than some of the other parts of San Diego County, but boast a special, laidback charm. Home buyers here will discover plenty of fantastic properties in a picturesque setting with an abundance of oaks, sycamores, pepper and eucalyptus trees. Even though it’s growing quickly, the East County area has remained a desirable retreat for those hoping to get away from the hustle and bustle of the big city, without going too far from the urban pulse.
