Rolando is an established neighborhood in ZIP code 92115, east of the College Area and SDSU, along the border with La Mesa, with Rolando Village and Rolando Park nearby. Homes are mostly single-family houses from the 1940s through the 1960s, including ranch and cottage styles, with some condos and small multi-unit properties.
