CARLSBAD

Carlsbad is a coastal city located along the Pacific Ocean in the North San Diego County. It is 87 miles south of Los Angeles and 35 miles north of downtown San Diego. High property values, high median family incomes, and high education levels have made Carlsbad among the wealthier communities in California. A low population density, coastal location, thriving commercial sector, and an award-winning school district all contribute to the high standard of living in the area. The city is known for shopping, tourism, a booming high-tech industry, and resort living.
