Carmel Valley

Carmel Valley is a master planned community in the north-western corner of San Diego. The name Carmel Valley comes from the Carmelite Sisters of Mercy, who established a dairy farm and monastery in the area circa 1905.

Carmel Valley is bordered on the South by the Los Penasquitos Canyon Preserve, and many homes enjoy spectacular views of some local San Diego flora and fauna. Nearby is the Torrey Pines State Preserve, where one of two stands of the endangered Torrey Pine is found to occur.

While many people in the area are now referring to the entire 92130 zip code as Carmel Valley, the actual boundaries of the community remain unchanged from the original community plan. The remainder of the 92130 zip code is filled by the surrounding communities of Del Mar Mesa, Pacific Highlands Ranch, and Torrey Hills.

Living in Carmel Valley affords quick and easy access to freeways, shopping, beaches, and more.
