Carlsbad Real Estate is often on the ocean or within 5 miles of the water. It hasbeen a scenic getaway with a temperate climate. Today Carlsbad provides a wide variety of shopping, culture, sports and entertainment. The area has had a long history, but growth was slow in the early years.
With the coming of the railroad in 1883, the land between Los Angeles and San Diego was opened up to homesteaders. The population hovered around 300 until 1914, when railroad money brought in by South Coast Land Company secured water rights from Oceanside. However it would still be decades before Carlsbad real estate would be in demand.
By the mid-twenties, Carlsbad had its own school district, several new churches, a movie theater and a weekly newspaper.
Proximity to a new Marine Corps Base at Camp Pendleton brought the world to Carlsbad's doorstep after the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941. Recognition that the growing pains could best be eased by incorporation led to the formation of the City of Carlsbad in 1952. Since then, although the population has increased nearly 700 percent and the area of the city has expanded to three times its original size, much remains the same.
There is a now wide range of housing available, from restored historic homes to modern upscale developments, especially east of the interstate, offering spectacular views of the ocean and sunsets. South Carlsbad, which is in many ways a different community also has some of the finest new developments in San Diego County.
