Torrey Hills to bordered: to the north by Ted Williams Parkway (CA-56) and Carmel Valley; to the northeast by Carmel Valley; to the south and southeast by Los Peñasquitos Canyon and Mira Mesa; and to the west by Interstate 5.

During 1979 when Carmel Valley was being planned, the city had conducted studies on the Los Peñasquitos Canyon Preserve as an open space park and had not determined the boundary of the park, so the City designated Torrey Hills as Future Urbanizing on the General Plan. In February 1980, Genstar-Peñasquitos (now AG Land Associates, LLC) dedicated a total of 1,806 acres of Los Peñasquitos Canyon to the City. This created a border for the preserve and as a result, a community planning program was initated, and the original plan area was transferred from Future Urbanizing to Planned Urbanizing on the General Plan, exculding 178 acres adjacent to the Torrey Hills community planning area, whcih was designated as Future Urbanizing,

On November 4, 1986, San Diego voters approved a transfer of 166 acres of government owned land on the western boundary of Los Peñasquitos Canyon Preserve located adjacent to Interstate 5 to a private landholder in exchange for 288 acres of land adjacent to the Los Peñasquitos Canyon preserve, north of the area referred to as "The Falls." Between the 166 acre parcel and Interstate 5, 12 additional acres were incorporated into the ballot measure, which in total, provided an additional 178 acres to Torrey Hills. The ballot resulted in city designating Torrey Hills as Planned Urbanizing and in 1994, the City Council approved an amendment to the Torrey Hills Community Plan.

The Del Mar Union School District serves two elementary schools located in this community, Torrey Hills Elementary and Sage Canyon Elementary.
