San Jacinto Valley- Southern California
Hemet and San Jacinto are one of the best kept secrets of Southern
California! Nestled in the valley of the beautiful San Jacinto
mountains, we enjoy clear skies, clean air, and an average temperature
of 75 degrees with 342 days of sunshine! The altitude is 1,575 feet and
we average 12.5 inches of average yearly rainfall. Our valley has the
most ideal climate in the Inland Empire region of Southern California,
and we have been able to maintain small town security, charm, and
character. Hemet has approximately 65,000 permanent residents and San
Jacinto has about 20,000. The valley has long been a Mecca for retirees, while
also maintaining a balance of young families that enjoy employment both
locally and in surrounding communities.
Our valley is centrally located to all major southern
California points of interest including Disneyland, Rose Bowl, Universal
Studios, major colleges and universities, major shopping complexes,
including the new Ontario Mills Shopping Mall to name a few. The valley

San
Jacinto holds the distinction of being the oldest town in Riverside
County. The on the east to Corona on the west. The name San Jacinto was
allegedly given by Juan Bautista de Anza in 1774 who arrived in the
valley on Saint Hyacinth's day. For many years, the Estudillo family
(who received a land grant from the Mexican government in 1842) their
ranch hands and the Indians were the only occupants. When other settlers
arrived, Don Jose Antonio Estudillo began selling parcels of land and
decided to found a town. The first public school was built in 1868. The
County's oldest newspaper, the San Jacinto Register began to publish in
1884. And San Jacinto became incorporated in 1888. San Jacinto is in
close proximity to California's largest population centers but has
retained the flavor of open spaces and the surrounding areas are
comprised of Indian reservations, dairies and agricultural lands.
