Alpine Real Estate & Homes for Sale in California

Alpine is an unincorporated community with a population of about 15,300, nestled amongst the foothills of the majestic Cuyamaca Mountains in the San Diego metro area. Featured in CNN’s Money publication as one of the best places in the country to both live and retire, Alpine offers a best of both worlds lifestyle that attracts people from all walks of life. Well-known locally for its country roads lined with apple orchards and rural rolling landscape, this town is just 26 miles from San Diego. Residents enjoy a family-oriented country atmosphere without sacrificing the modern conveniences and culture of an urban setting. The climate, typical to this area of Southern California is also as close to ideal as you can get in America. With an average temperature in the winter of 55 degrees and the nearby shore keeping temperatures at a comfortable warmth throughout the long summer months, Alpine experiences very little rainfall and over 300 days of sunshine annually. The wide range of what Alpine has to offer in the form of entertainment reflects the diversity of its inhabitants. Renowned for the Viejas Indian tribe and their casino, located on what is still reservation land, the local economy benefits from this and other nearby gambling amenities. A popular outlet center and Viejas Concerts in the park are enjoyed by visitors and locals alike. Nearby lakes and mountain trails encourage fishing, boating, hiking and other outdoor recreation. Take all this and add schools that rank in the 90th percentile and a plethora of career options and you’ll see why living in Alpine is like having your apple pie and eating it too.
