The exquisite City of Chula Vista is unlike any other. Nestled beside a beautiful bay filled with boats gently swaying in the yacht harbor and surrounded by picturesque mountains rising tall into the blue sky, the city evokes a sense of community and family spirit reminiscent of small town America. What makes Chula Vista unique, however, is that it offers both the aura and pleasures of a small town with tree-lined streets and family owned businesses and the amenities of a thriving metropolis.
In Chula Vista, we have an expanding downtown brimming with retail shops, restaurants and businesses, both old and new. New, modern architecture combines harmoniously with historical sites and parks located throughout the city.
With top schools, excellent health care facilities, libraries overflowing with information, spacious parks to play in, community programs for all ages and top-notch facilities for South Bay’s seniors.
Chula Vista offers the residents of its community the best of everything.
In 1911, the city was known primarily for its lemon orchards. Today, Chula Vista is recognized for its yacht harbor with two marinas, recreational vehicle parks, shopping centers, golf courses, lodging, restaurants, parks, picnic areas, fishing pier and boat launching facility. Rich growth continues in this thriving city.
The Nature Center, ARCO/U.S. Olympic Training Center, Knott’s Soak City USA Water Park and the Cricket Amphitheater have put Chula Vista toward the top of the list as a “must” family getaway. Whether you choose to live in Chula Vista or are looking for an exciting vacation spot, you are sure to enjoy all that Chula Vista has to offer.
The city’s growth continues steadily on the upswing. In 1911, Chula Vista encompassed an area of only six square miles. By 1961, the city had expanded to 19 square miles, and since then has blossomed into its present 52 square miles.
In half a century, Chula Vista has experienced a population explosion, with more than 178,000 people enjoying the benefits of Chula Vista as their home today. Fifty years ago, the city’s population was 1,718.
The expanding population can be attributed to growing employment opportunities, a rich community spirit, a consistently moderate climate and a city government that puts the quality of life first.
The benefits of a diverse work force, a well-educated and progressive population, and an ideal location for work and play are attractive to businesses.
Easy access to two major north-south freeways and the newly constructed 125 highway makes Chula Vista a convenient place to work, visit and live. Inter-states 5 and 805 bring thousands of visitors and tourists to the city each day.
Proximity to San Diego and Mexico, just seven miles from either location, makes Chula Vista a well suited spot for both business and pleasure.
