Escondido

Settled in a long valley in the coastal mountains of Southern California, Escondido provides a thriving urban environment in the midst of gentle rolling hills and avocado and citrus groves. The California Center for the Arts brings world class entertainment to the San Diego area, and the nearby San Diego Wild Animal Park make Escondido an ideal place to visit.
