The neighborhood was first developed in the post-war building boom of the 1950s. Clairemont's design represented a new concept in community living because it did not incorporate the traditional grid system of uniform blocks and streets used previously. Instead, winding streets and scenic view lots took advantage of the canyons and bluffs overlooking Mission Bay. The Clairemont Mesa community, encompassing approximately 13.3 square miles, lies south of State Route 52, west of Interstate 805, north of the Linda Vista community, and east of Interstate 5. Developed areas of Clairemont Mesa sit primarily atop mesas punctuated by several major canyon systems, with San Clemente Canyon to the north and Tecolote Canyon weaving through the center of the community. Many of the neighborhoods in the western portion of the community enjoy views of Mission Bay and the Pacific Ocean. Several significant commercial centers serve Clairemont Mesa and are located at the intersections of major transportation corridors, such as Clairemont Drive and Clairemont Mesa Boulevard, as well as Balboa Avenue and Genesee Ave. Smaller pockets of commercial development are interspersed throughout the community and along Morena Boulevard.
