Why is detached adu different in North County Inland San Diego?

Vista, San Marcos, and Escondido have something most coastal communities don't, actual lot depth, and often a detached garage that's already sitting in the right footprint for a conversion or rebuild. Summer heat pushes insulation and ventilation requirements higher, but the trade-off is a rental market that's growing fast as people get priced out of the coast. A properly permitted detached ADU here is one of the cleaner paths to long-term income on land you already own.
