Some refer to Colina Park as Little Mogadishu because of the large Somali community living here. But this is just one piece of what makes Colina Park unique.  The Latino, Vietnamese and African businesses along University Avenue and El Cajon Boulevard reveal our truly multicultural colors.  

We value the diversity of our community. Indeed, we think it is our greatest asset.  But we haven’t completely mastered the art of working together - across race, ethnicity, religion, culture and language. Until we can do this, we won’t become the community we want to be.

The Stories of Colina Park project profiles the people of Colina Park.  Through personal stories, family recipes and art, we can learn about each other, celebrate our uniqueness, and recognize our similarities.
