Poway


Poway is a city in San Diego County, California. Originally an unincorporated community in San Diego County, Poway officially became a city in December 1980. EvenPoway San Diego Real Estate though Poway lies geographically in the middle of San Diego County, most consider its relative location as north county inland. Poway’s rural roots gave rise to its slogan “The City in the Country.” As of the 2010 census the city had a population of 47,811. The ZIP code is 92064.

Poway is located at 32°58?12?N 117°2?19?W (32.969895, -117.038479).[2] which lies north of the city of San Diego and south of the city of Escondido. Some nearby communities of San Diego include Rancho Bernardo, Sabre Springs, Scripps Ranch, Rancho Penasquitos, and in the county to the east, the community of Ramona. According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 39.3 square miles (101.9 km²). 39.2 square miles (101.6 km²) of it is land and 0.1 square miles (0.3 km²) of it (0.25%) is water.

Poway has a creek and fertile soil, but the lack of easily available water prevented the settlement from attracting large-scale farmers and the accompanying population growth. Not until 1954 did the town establish the Poway Municipal Water District, which utilizes water from the Colorado River Aqueduct to irrigate all of Poway’s 10,000 acres (40 km²). When water came to the town, people did as well. In 1957, following the sewer system‘s completion, developers built housing tracts, and modern Poway grew from there. In 1980 Poway incorporated and officially became the City of Poway (nicknamed “the City in the Country”) rather than a part of San Diego. Poway no longer depends on agriculture for its primary source of income, and has instead transitioned into a residential community for those who work for employers in and around the San Diego area. According to a recent state government estimate, the population of Poway has grown since that last census to 50,542.[5]
