Pacific Highlands Ranch was designed to be a pedestrian-friendly, sustainable neighborhood with a central mixed-use village area. This village aptly named the Village at Pacific Highlands Ranch, is a Santa Barbara inspired complex featuring mixed-use living, specialty grocers, retail, fitness studios, medical and dental offices, specialty boutiques, and abundant dining options. The community park includes a central promenade that connects the community park to the Village. The park’s walkways and connections to its surroundings complement the community’s pedestrian-friendly design, which also leads towards the Pacific Highlands Ranch Library.

High school students have the option of attending Canyon Crest Academy, Torrey Pines Middle School, or the private Cathedral Catholic High School, all located within a short distance from one another.
