San Diego County is one of the 58 counties that make up the state of California. The county was
established in February of 1850, just a few months after California joined the union to become
the 31 st state. The county is roughly the size of Connecticut, and is made up of 18 incorporated
cities and towns, and many more unincorporated communities. In 2011 the estimated
population of San Diego County was 3,140,069, making it second only to Los Angeles County.
Much of this region’s economic, social, and physical growth has been shaped by the unique
and diverse geography. This area can boast of having miles of breathtaking coastline, lush, green
valleys, lakes, and panoramic views of the deserts and mountains.
