The 90210 high school is Torrance High on Carson St. in Torrance. It's also in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Bruce Almighty, Less than Zero, and a bunch of other movies.

Most of Back to the Future was shot on the Universal lot but I believe it all burned down in a huge backlot fire.

Most of it was. However, all of the houses are real houses. Gamble house in Pasadena is the house that was Doc's house. The Puente Hills Mall is the Lone Pine / Twin Pines Mall. Whittier High is Hill Valley High, etc.

Did you get a tour of Gamble house? It is interesting from the outside but inside the wood and workmanship is like a fine shipwright. It was the winter home of the Gamble family (Proctor & Gamble) and was built with an unlimited budget. I have lived in SoCal my whole life and only just toured it this year. If you like Frank Lloyd Wright and other fine examples of American craftsmanship it is worth a few hours to see. Also the Sam Malouf home and workshop in Rancho Cucamonga.

We had a packed day so we did not tour it. Both of us would like to go back and tour it though.
