Palm Springs is located 107 miles east of Los Angeles on the western edge of the Coachella Valley in Central Riverside County. The natural beauty of the area has entranced many a newcomer. Magnificent Mt. Jacinto at 10,831 ft. lends scenic grandeur to the downtown Palm Springs shopping area and business district. In the 1860s, the area now known as Palm Springs was little more than a rest station on the stagecoach line linking New Mexico with Los Angeles. Some twenty years later, permanent settlers quickly formed a residential community and the area was recognized as Palm Springs in 1876.
Recreational facilities include a municipal golf course, tennis courts, an olympic-sized public pool, a dog park and baseball stadium. Hiking and biking are popular area pastimes and there are many bicycle routes and hiking trails from which to choose.
Palm Springs enjoys a low-humidity desert climate with average temperatures ranging from a low in the mid fifties to a high in the upper eighties. This is ideal weather for sports and other outdoor activities. The rich and famous were attracted to the area shortly after the turn of the century when millionaires such as the Hearst and Vanderbilt families found Palm Springs a blissful getaway. Later many motion picture stars such as Rudolph Valentino, Theda Bara, Frank Sinatra and Bing Crosby - among others - built their homes here.
