I went to CVS this morning at the shopping center and guess what I saw? you will see my pictures. I went inside CVS I asked supervisor what could be done as someone I assume a homeless person sitting on the ground with his blankets just a few steps away to the left from the front entrance of the CVS, smoking marijuana, possibly doing drugs because all kind of weird stuff was laying all over, having the shopping cart with all the stuff and bunch of bottles and cans along Cvs sidewalk . I spoke to the supervisor inside CVS and he informed me that they can't do anything about what's going on outside of their store, I raised the question about security guards. The answer was they don't see them very much. I went to our Wonderful sheriff's department in 4S Ranch, and guess what? The young guy who works inside told me I need to call over the phone to report- that this is ridiculous!!! I said but I have pictures of the person and all the stuff, I was told again you need to call the dispatch! There are no security guards driving or walking around for a long time. By The Ulta store used to be by Cop car with flashing lights- no longer there, no security guard by the banks I could find as I used to see them by the bank. This is ridiculous. The shopping center should be ashamed of the way they run the business. It’s a super busy shopping center with kids running all over and now we have drug addicts openly doing their drugs just sitting by CVS because they know no one is ever going to bother them because Nobody patrols that area. Shame on you 4S town center, you make millions of dollars, there are no vacancies at this shopping center, and you should protect us and our children from drug addicts just sitting there because you don’t wanna spend money on security guards who would be there. I am sure that with your high income from all those businesses you have enough budget to have patrol and drug addicts would not be sitting freely there for hours hanging out doing drugs if they know patrol/...

Within the heart of Rancho Bernardo is the neighborhood of 4S Ranch, a pristine suburb that would be worthy of a description by Charles Dickens. The 4S Ranch neighborhood is substantially younger than surrounding Rancho Penasquitos, Mira Mesa and Carlsbad suburbs. Home to immigrants from Eastern Europe, Sub Saharan Africa, and South Asia, it is the epitome of everything that American suburbs should be in the second decade of the 21st century. The 4S Commons Town center is no different. There is a Panera, Ace Hardware, Ralphs, Jamba Juice,CVS Pharmacy, Bank of America, Chase Bank in addition to a number...
Read moreI’ve lived in this area for 20 years and used to ride dirt bikes and play paintball here before any of these stores were built.
There has been a huge hit and miss with restaurants and retail that rent here. The last ten years have erred more toward the miss column.
Jimbo’s is incredible and the Ralphs in this center is great, perhaps lending to the Ralphs family owning real estate in the area and as rumor has it, helping with the development of the area.
My issue is that whenever I’m hungry I don’t know where to go. I wouldn’t think of getting a haircut anywhere here and the shopping is disappointing.
This center needs just one truly great local spot. Bring in a game changer. Discount their rent if you have to. Give us a small reason to be...
