Local Context
The current City page describes the district as bounded by 4th Avenue on the north, 13th on the south, Escondido Boulevard on the west, and Chestnut on the east.
That wording is useful for general orientation, but it is not a parcel map or a stored boundary polygon. A separate City GIS feature service published in 2017 supplies the district-scale polygon shown on Escondidopedia's Places map. The map preserves that source date and does not decide whether an address or property is currently inside the district. Consult current City Planning records for property-specific or regulatory questions.
Historical context
The district's homes span more than one architectural period. The 2012 City review uses the area to show how residential development accumulated from the mid-1880s onward rather than appearing in a single building campaign. An individual home's age, style, or historic status requires property-specific research.
For the district's place within the city's longer development, see History of Escondido. Related pages shown below provide broader historical context; they are not a list of properties or places inside the district.

This page provides a dated City-authored district polygon for general map context. It does not provide current parcel-level historic status, a property inventory, legal or design-review guidance, current applications, tours, restoration status, visitor logistics, demographic estimates, rent, home prices, or a list of nearby places.
The City page can change. Check current City Planning records and adopted documents before relying on district boundaries, property inclusion, regulations, or procedures.
Source Notes
The City web page is the current official source used for the establishment date and street-based description. The City GIS snapshot is the source for the 2017 district polygon. The 2012 cultural-resources report is a dated historical synthesis. None is used here as current parcel-level status or legal guidance.
