Palm Desert, California Info
Moving to the Palm Desert California Desert
Palm Desert sits smack in the middle of the Coachella Valley Desert, oftentimes mistakenly referred to as Palm Springs, California. What many people don’t know is that Palm Springs represents only one of the cities in the desert. There are a total of nine cities which form the Coachella Valley. The other cities which make up this area are: Palm Desert, Desert Hot Springs, Cathedral City, Rancho Mirage, Indian Wells, La Quinta, Indio and Coachella. Each with its own personality!
Many years ago when the city forefathers in Palm Springs decided not to expand the area of Palm Springs because they wanted to keep it small and quaint, many businesses just decided to build East of the city and they began expanding into Palm Desert. Soon, Palm Desert became known as the place to shop, to live and to be seen!
Palm Desert has everything a big city can offer with a small town atmosphere. It has the McCallum Theatre where many top-notch shows and performers play regularly. It has the Living Desert Wild Animal Park, Concerts in Civic Park, the famous El Paseo Boulevard of Shops, which many say is similar to Rodeo Drive… and many more areas of interest. Palm Desert is also centrally located and only minutes away from Eisenhower Hospital, The Betty Ford Center and the Barbara Sinatra Center for Abused Children. Everything you need or what, you’ll find in Palm Desert.
Fund raising events, celebrity golf tournaments, and gala affairs contribute handsomely to many of the non-profit organizations in the Valley. All of this is because of the generosity of the affluent who live in this area and give back to this area as well. Walter Annenberg has been one of the largest contributors, and his contribution to this area has helped to make this one of the best areas in the country for medical attention.
Because Palm Desert is so centrally located to the other cities which comprise of the Coachella Valley, it only takes a 30-40 minute drive to get from one end of the valley to the other. When folks are looking to buy in Location Location Location, they often think of Palm Desert, California.
To learn more about this great area, I encourage you to visit www.MovingToPalmSprings.com where you can read about the rich history of the Coachella Valley, to search the local Multiple Listing Service for housing to meet your needs, and to find out “what’s happening” in this unique Valley.
