Property Management Santee

Santee, incorporated December 1980, is entering its 29th year as a municipality. With a population of 56,000 and located in eastern San Diego County, Santee is the twelfth largest of San Diego County’s 18 cities. With approximately half of its land undeveloped, Santee is one of the few cities in the county with space to grow.

Sportsplex USA Santee, a 15 acres (61,000 m2) sports field complex, opened on June 1, 2010. Located within Town Center Community Park, it features three lighted softball fields, four batting cages, two lighted arena soccer fields, spectator seating, parking and a sports-themed restaurant offering food, beer and wine. In addition to being a popular spot for mountain bikers, the city hosts a popular Southern California rock climbing venue called Santee Boulders. Santee Lakes Regional Park and Campground offers 190 acres (0.77 km2) for fishing, camping, bird watching and picnicking.

State Route 52 has recently been extended eastward through this area from its current terminus at State Route 125 to State Route 67 on the city’s east side. The city is bisected by four main thoroughfares: Mast Boulevard and Mission Gorge Road traverse east and west, while Magnolia Avenue and Cuyamaca Street cross north and south. Santee also is the eastern terminus of the San Diego Metropolitan Transit System (MTS) Green Line trolley route, which connects East County to Old Town and downtown San Diego. MTS also provides bus service. Gillespie Field, the oldest and largest of eight commercial aviation airports operated by San Diego County, is located on Santee’s southern border with the city of El Cajon. The airport serves as a hub for local businesses.

The area is home to the Grossmont Community College District, Santee School District for all elementary and junior high campuses, and two high schools which are part of the Grossmont High School District. In addition, San Diego State University and University of San Diego are close by. Nestled between gently rolling hills and located near several refreshing lakes, Santee offers the comfortable convenience of urban living with the serenity and safety of the country. A dedicated City Council and thoughtful City government have taken steps to preserve the community’s natural identity. Sound government practices and a strong financial base ensure a bright future for Santee.
