All About

Living in Imperial Beach, CA

Your Imperial Beach apartment for rent is amid vast suburban splendor that stretches to the scintillating Pacific Coast. While your neighborhood has the laid-back vibe that has come to characterize San Diego, it still has a notable vibrancy due to the nearby areas of commerce and the bustling freeway that cuts through the area.

For recreation, you and your new neighbors can engage in some friendly competition at the nearby Morley Field Disc Golf Course. After you've finished the match, you may want to cool off with a dip in the nearby Bud Kearns Memorial Swimming Pool or heat things up with a game or two on the tennis court.

Your four-legged friend will surely love your new community as well. With all the beaches located nearby, he or she will be able to run and play fetch as you soak up some vitamin D. If you and your canine cohort want to socialize with your new neighbors, you can always head to the Morley Field Dog Park, which you can access via the main thoroughfare, Park Boulevard. Other parks that are nearby your Imperial Beach apartment include Wabash Park and Old Trolley Barn Park.

To celebrate the new chapter in your life, you and your beau may want to catch a flick at the nearby AMC movie theatre located on Camino Del Rio North, or you may want to head downtown and experience San Diego's vibrant nightlife and dance scene.

Come school time, your little ones will be attending the close-by Cherokee Point Elementary School on 38th Street. Of course, they don't have to be the only ones returning to school. Right down the street from your abode is the San Diego Community College - the opportune place to kickstart your new career.
