Palm Springs is part of Southern California's Coachella Valley. The Valley has a year round population of approximately 550,000 people and continues to be one of the fastest growing areas in California. Aside from being a popular retirement destination, young families continue to migrate into the Valley in higher numbers every year for its affordable housing, compared to other areas of California, and its proximity to Los Angeles, Orange County and San Diego. The population growth rate is expected to be more than 15% over the next 5 years. The Coachella Valley is known for a variety of annual festivals and a host of highly-acclaimed events that bring culture, music, sports, entertainment, shopping and a variety of cuisine to thousands of locals and visitors each year. It is a playground for world-class polo enthusiasts and is a haven for golf and tennis players and offers year round sunshine.
