• South Bay -  Steeped in Spanish heritage, yet welcoming a bright future, South Bay improves with each passing year.  Parklands and nature preserves, well-planned, well-built new neighborhoods and a U.S. Olympic training center contribute to this area's growth.

• East County -  A bit further afield than other areas, East County encompasses some communities with traditional small town charm, others with a relaxed desert resort feel and even a few with a bigger city lifestyle.
