El Chaparral is a southbound vehicle crossing from San Diego into Tijuana. It is part of the San Ysidro Port of Entry. It replaced the former entry point known as Puerta México which stood immediately east of El Chaparral. The opening of El Chaparral roughly tripled the number of traffic lanes to 22, reducing wait times for vehicles entering Mexico. It is roughly in the same location as the former Virginia Avenue crossing, where trucks entering the US from Mexico prior to 1983 was located. Access is via a four-lane, temporary access road that is 0.2 miles (0.32 km) long and leads west from the end of Interstate 5.

Compared to projects like Aquamar (from €269,950), Lantana Residencial (from €205,000), and Etherna Homes 2 (from €259,000), which focus more on new construction in coastal areas like Torre del Mar and Estepona, this villa in El Chaparral occupies a different market segment. The aforementioned comparable projects are significantly lower priced and typically represent apartments or smaller homes in new complexes. The villa in El Chaparral, priced at €1,200,000, is an existing, larger detached property with more private space (plot, pool) and a different location type (more urban, inland). The price reflects its size, finishes, existing facilities, and specific location within a more established urban setting near Málaga, shifting the focus from development to the value of a completed, spacious residence.
