Alpine sits along a mountainous edge of the San Diego metro area
Alpine delivers on its name: The semiarid mountaintops create a breathtaking skyline that gives the Southern California city its rural character. Once a stagecoach stop, Alpine has come a long way since its humble, late-1800s beginnings. Today, nearly 15,000 people call this foothill city home. Sandwiched between San Diego and the Cuyamaca Mountains, there's big-city fun to the east and a vast wilderness to the west. Beneath the mountains are suburbs with rustic flair. In between more than 100 square miles of mountains, forests and deserts lies the Viejas reservation, as well as its five smaller settlements.
