Kearny Mesa: Kearny Mesa's residential pockets sit tucked between Convoy Street and Aero Drive, where older attached homes and modest single-family lots make ADUs a practical move for families who want to stay close while the city grows more expensive around them. With inland valley warmth and quick access to the 163 and 805, multigenerational living here is as much about keeping the commute short as it is about keeping the family together.

Why is adu design different in Central San Diego?

San Diego's city core and La Mesa neighborhoods carry a mix of 1950s bungalows, hillside lots, and dense corridors where no two parcels play by the same rules. Good design reads the existing structure and the city's specific overlay requirements before a single line gets drawn. That groundwork is what turns a complicated urban lot into a legal, livable second unit.
