Escondido's homes were built where citrus and avocado groves thrived in the 1920s. In some parts of the community, those trees are still thick between homes. Drive a few minutes away from the major mall and you'll be back in the groves, where active citrus farmers still live and work. Its truly a suburban area placed amongst a rural valley.
