Based on California DWR well completion reports. Potrero's average well depth is 61 feet deeper than the San Diego County average of 450 feet.
With 105 wells on record, Potrero has a moderate well infrastructure. The wide depth range of 20 to 1600 feet reflects the varied terrain and geology across Potrero's landscape. Shallower wells typically tap into alluvial aquifers near drainages, while deeper wells penetrate the Peninsular Ranges batholith, primarily granitic and metamorphic rock to reach more reliable water sources.
At an average depth of 511 feet, well inspections in Potrero should include a static water level measurement, pump performance test, and water quality screening. See detailed well depth data for Potrero →
