Over five years the median sale price in Encanto is up about 24% and the price per square foot is up about 18%. The two agree, which is what you want to see.

Price per square foot is the sale price divided by the home's interior square footage.
Both figures use the same smoothed five year comparison: the average of the last twelve monthly medians against the average of the first twelve. A gap of eight points or more is treated as a mix shift. That threshold was set by testing, not picked: an earlier version flagged nine of nineteen areas, which is noise. It now flags eight of forty.

Abraham Klauber platted land around his country house here and his daughter Ella named it Encanto, Spanish for enchantment. In 1907 a group of Montana investors bought 1,100 acres and sold it as Encanto Heights in half acre to ten acre lots for suburban homes and small farms, and the area voted to join San Diego in 1916 to get city water. The Emerald Hills golf course, opened in 1929, became a housing tract in 1958, and Broadway Heights and Alta Vista followed.
