The San Carlos region borders some of San Diego’s most prominent neighborhoods; Del Cerro, Tierrasanta, Allied Gardens, the city of La Mesa, and the Mission Trails Regional Park.

The area is mostly defined by its geographical landmarks, the man-made reservoir Lake Murray and, what the citizens closely hold dear to their heart, what they define as their crowning jewel, The Cowles Mountain (the highness summit in the San Diego region. Formed during the Jurassic and early Cretaceous period, this mountain range is mostly formed from indigenous rocks and metavolcanos).
