Life in Oceanside

Oceanside, California is the third-largest city in San Diego County. Its population is just under 180,000 people.

Oceanside is located near Camp Pendleton, which is the busiest, and one of the largest, military installations in the U.S., and a major source of the area's economic activity.

Oceanside, California was originally settled by Europeans in 1769, when Spanish missionaries arrived in the area, though the area had been populated by Native Americans for thousands of years before, and became part of Spain's North American empire. In 1821, when Mexico gained independence from Spain, the area now known as Oceanside, and the rest of California, became part of Mexico. The area fell under U.S. control after Mexico lost the Mexican-American war.

This led to a land rush into the newly-acquired territories by American settlers. By the early 20th Century, Oceanside began to develop into the beach community that we would recognize today.

Oceanside has a climate which, for many people, isnearly perfect, with temperatures rarely exceeding 80 degrees, or dropping below 40 degrees, coupled with small amounts of rain.
