La Mesa has become a mecca for those seeking a balanced, measured life-style amid an increasingly urban region. Its population has grown to nearly 60,000, yet it has maintained a mix of distinct neighborhoods, many of which have preserved elements of the city’s 100-year history. Even as trolley tracks and highways shortened the time and distances between La Mesa and its urban neighbors, elements of great avocado farms, lemon groves and horse paddocks can still be found surrounding a Village core that is neither urban nor suburban. La Mesa’s motto is “Jewel of the Hills’’ and it has remained true to that description for a century.
