Features: Great floor plan Low HOA fees Well-maintained Bldg ## Discover the Charm of Imperial Beach, CA ### Introduction to Imperial Beach Nestled along the picturesque coastline of Southern California, Imperial Beach is a serene residential beach city in San Diego County. With a population of 26,137 as per the 2020 United States Census, Imperial Beach offers a unique blend of coastal charm, rich history, and modern amenities, making it an ideal location for those seeking a tranquil yet vibrant lifestyle. Located just 14.1 miles south of downtown San Diego. Imperial Beach is the southernmost city on the West Coast of the United States. ### A Historical Haven Imperial Beach sits on the traditional territory of the Kumeyaay people, who established the village of Alyshuwii. Founded in June 1887, the city derives its name from Imperial County, with early settlers seeking refuge from the desert heat of the Imperial Valley during the summer months. The city's historical significance is further highlighted by its connection to the construction of the Hotel del Coronado in nearby Coronado, where many laborers who contributed to this grand project made Imperial Beach their home. ### Modern Transformations Over the past decade, Imperial Beach has undergone a remarkable transformation, evolving into a visitor-friendly and commercially viable community while retaining its residential essence. In 2004, the city embarked on an ambitious redevelopment plan aimed at revitalizing the commercial corridors along Palm Avenue and Seacoast Drive. This initiative culminated in the construction of the Pier South Resort, a $22 million luxury hotel completed in December 2013, featuring 78 rooms, a restaurant, bar, spa, and conference facilities. Despite these developments, Imperial Beach remains predominantly residential, offering a peaceful retreat with limited hotel and motel accommodations. ### Geographic and Climatic Appeal Spanning 4.5 square miles, with 4.2 square miles of land and 0.3 square miles of water, Imperial Beach occupies the extreme southwest corner of the continental United States. It is bordered by the Playas de Tijuana to the south, Coronado and the San Diego Bay to the north, San Diego to the east, and the majestic Pacific Ocean to the west. This prime location offers residents breathtaking ocean views, easy access to pristine beaches, and a plethora of outdoor activities. Imperial Beach boasts a warm semi-arid climate, with summer temperatures typically in the upper 70s °F (mid-20s °C) and winter temperatures in the 60s °F (15 to 20 °C). The area enjoys comfortable
