San Diego Auto Shipping

San Diego is currently ranked as the second largest city in the state of California, behind Los Angeles; it has a population of over 1.3 million residents, which actually puts it as the ninth largest city in the entire United States. It is located on the coast, and as such it is a major import and export city in the United States; most goods from Asia come through the ports in San Diego. It also shares a border with Tijuana, Mexico, with the economy of the city linked closely with that of Tijuana. Its economy is heavily dependent on agriculture, biotechnology and science.

San Diego as we know it was first settled by the Spanish in the mid-17th century; it was founded by a conquistador named Juan Cabrillo, though it was resettled and expanded by Gaspar de Portola, who found the area in 1769. It started as a small mission and grew rapidly, especially from Spanish colonists and American frontiersmen. San Diego was ceded to the United States, along with the rest of California, after the end of the Mexican-American war in 1848, and in 1850 the city was incorporated.

San Diego played a major role in the California Gold Rush and, because of its importance during the time, not to mention its rapid growth, San Diego was awarded the county seat in San Diego County. The city is home to miles of coastline that is now home to the rich and famous, though neighborhoods from every economic circle can be found in the city.

Due to its location on the coast, the city’s temperatures and weather patterns differ somewhat from its inland neighbors. For instance, the average daily high during the summer is just 78 degrees, while overnight lows often drop to around 50 degrees. In the winter time, temperatures typically cool down to around 54 degrees during the day, with lows often dropping to 40 degrees overnight.
