The desert offers its own unique brand of beauty to those who would call it home, and San Jacinto is the ideal example. Majestic Mount San Jacinto, the second highest mountain range in Southern California, overlooks this historic town with roots dating back to the earliest days of California – when hunter/gatherers subsisted on the native acorns and small game. Now, the Soboba Indian Reservation is home to many native descendants, who continue to enjoy the fruits of the valley to this day.

 Of course, San Jacinto features a far more diverse population than this; currently, the city is home to more than 36,000 residents. Spilling out from the base of the mountain and its subalpine forests, San Jacinto neighborhoods sit among attractions like the Estudillo Mansion, home to the town’s annual Fourth of July festival. Just minutes away, hiking is the main attraction at the Pacific Crest Trail, and a ride to remember is in store at the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway.  

Yes, San Jacinto is largely a bedroom community; however, it is possible to live and work there as well. The city boasts a diverse business and job base that includes manufacturing, agriculture, retail, medical, and other in-demand services. The city’s largest private employers include Steel Weld, Skyline Corporation, Hawaiian Popcorn, Super Wal-Mart, and Stater Bros; while public services employers include the City of San Jacinto, the County of Riverside, San Jacinto Unified School District, and Mount San Jacinto College. The college’s convenient location means access to higher education for thousands of San Jacinto residents. In that vein, education for K-12 students is provided by the San Jacinto Unified School District.
