Where the areas sit
Each of these places has its own character, and none is a copy of another.
The main comparison. EastLake (ZIPs 91913 and 91914) and Otay Ranch (ZIPs 91915 and 91913) are master-planned communities in eastern Chula Vista, east of Interstate 805. Chula Vista 91910 covers north and central Chula Vista, including the Rancho Del Rey area, and Chula Vista 91911 covers the south-central part of the city, including the Otay area. Bonita (91902) is an unincorporated community next to the city.
Also adjacent. Spring Valley (91977 and 91978) is a pair of unincorporated ZIP codes farther inland, with 91978 also covering the Rancho San Diego area; Jamul (91935) is a rural, unincorporated community east of Chula Vista; and Otay Mesa and Ocean View Hills (92154) and San Ysidro (92173) are communities of the City of San Diego along the border.
The next ring out. Imperial Beach (91932) is a coastal city southwest of Chula Vista; National City (91950) and Lemon Grove (91945) are separate cities to the north; and Paradise Hills (92139) and Encanto and Skyline (92114) are communities of the City of San Diego north of Chula Vista.
Farther east. La Mesa (91941 and 91942) and El Cajon (92019, 92020 and 92021) are cities east of San Diego, and Alpine (91901) is an unincorporated foothill community in East County.
A ZIP code is a mail-delivery area, so each contains more than one kind of street, and a home’s own address matters more than any average.
How to use this page
- Read the groups in order. The main comparison is the set most buyers weigh against EastLake; the other adjacent areas and the next ring out show how far the picture stretches.
- Start with the type of community. Master-planned areas such as EastLake and Otay Ranch usually come with associations and, sometimes, special taxes; older neighborhoods often do not, and their lots and homes differ. The HOAs and amenities page explains how EastLake’s villages fit together.
- Look at the monthly cost, not just the price. Taxes, insurance, dues and special taxes can change the ranking; the cost and pace page puts the numbers side by side.
- Then check the address. Streets a few blocks apart can price very differently, and a ZIP average cannot show that.
Common questions

The main comparison is Rancho Del Rey and the rest of central Chula Vista (ZIPs 91910 and 91911) and Bonita (91902).

Why do EastLake and Otay Ranch share ZIP codes?

Is the highest-priced ZIP code the best?
Not necessarily. Compare the type of home, the monthly cost and the specific street; averages hide a lot.
Where does the data come from?
Values, rents and activity come from Zillow Research; the housing profile comes from the Census Bureau’s American Community Survey.
