The Good Life

California State University San Marcos is approximately 35 miles northeast of downtown San Diego. San Marcos and its vicinities are known as “North County” and are a unique collection of communities, each with its own personality and characteristics. Some of the cities North County includes are:

• Carlsbad
• Escondido
• Oceanside
• Rancho Bernardo
• San Marcos
• Vista

This region is one of the best places to live in the United States and one of the top tourist destinations. It offers the Pacific Ocean, mountains, and the desert, as well as numerous cultural and entertainment opportunities. It is within two hours of many popular Southern California destinations, but since many have described the area as having the perfect climate, you may never want to leave.
