Chula Vista (Template:Pron-en; Spanish: Beautiful View) is so named because of its scenic location between the San Diego Bay and coastal mountain foothills. It is the second largest city in the San Diego metropolitan area, 7th largest city in Southern California as well as the 14-largest city in the U.S. State of California. Located just 7 miles (11 km) from downtown San Diego and 7 miles (11 km) from the Mexican border in the South Bay region of the metropolitan area, the city is at the center of one of the richest economic and culturally diverse zones in the United States. Chula Vista is also the third largest city in San Diego–Tijuana and exerts strong influence on the nearby surrounding communities.[neutrality is disputed][citation needed]
Founded in the early 19th century, fast rates of growth are presently observed in the city. As the second largest city in San Diego County, Chula Vista has quickly become a destination popular to many tourists. Located in the city is one of Americas few year-round United States Olympic Training centers. Popular tourist destinations include Cricket Wireless Amphitheater, Knott's Soak City USA, the Chula Vista marina, the Chula Vista Nature Center as well as golf courses and the region’s newest lifestyle center.
History
Early history
Prehistoric evidence, of both land and aquatic origin, date Chula Vista's history to millions of years back. In the year 3000 B.C. people speaking the Yuman (Quechan) language began movement into the region from the Lower Colorado River Valley and southwestern Arizona portions of the Sonoran desert. Later the Kumeyaay tribe came to populate the land, on which the city sits today, who lived in the area for hundreds of years.[6]
In the year 1542, a fleet of three Spanish Empire ships, commanded by Juan Rodríguez Cabrillo, sailed into San Diego Harbor. Early explorations by Spanish conquistadors, such as these, led to Spanish claims of the land. The historic land on which Chula Vista sits became part of the 1795 land grant known as Rancho del Rey or The King's Ranch. The land eventually was renamed Rancho del la Nation.[6]
During the Mexican-American War, California was claimed by the United States, regardless of the California independence movement that had briefly swept the state. Though California was now under the jurisdiction of the United States, land grants were allowed to continue in the form of private property.[6]
The San Diego Land and Town Company developed lands of the Rancho de la Nación for new settlement. The town began as a five thousand acre development, with the first house being erected in 1887; by 1889, ten houses had been completed.[7] Chula Vista can be roughly translated in Spanish as "beautiful view."[6]
The 1888 completion of the Sweetwater Dam allowed for irrigation of Chula Vista farming lands. Chula Vista eventually became the largest lemon-growing center in the world for a period of time.[6]
20th century
The citizens of Chula Vista voted to incorporate on October 17, 1911. The State approved in November.[6]
In the 1910s, Chula Vista became one of the many San Diego neighborhoods connected by the Class 1 streetcars and an extensive San Diego public transit system that was spurred by the Panama-California Exposition of 1915 and built by John D. Spreckels. These streetcars went on to serve briefly as a connection to the U.S.-Mexico Border and became a fixture of this neighborhood until their retirement in 1939. Only three of these streetcars exist today -- surviving only by virtue of being transformed into homes -- and remain ideal candidates for restoration as a historic streetcar line on any of their previous routes.[8]
In 1916, the Hercules Powder Company opened a 30-acre bayfront site, now known as Gunpowder point, which produced substances used to make cordite, which was used extensively by the British military during World War I.[9] Although the Great Depression affected Chula Vista significantly, agriculture still provided considerable income for the residents. In 1931, the lemon orchards produced $1 million in revenue and the celery fields contributed $600,000.[6]
The relocation of Rohr Aircraft Corporation to Chula Vista in early 1941, just months before the attack on Pearl Harbor, changed Chula Vista. The land never returned to being orchard groves again. The population of post-World War II Chula Vista tripled from 5,000 residents in 1940 to more than 16,000 in 1950.[6] After the war, many of the factory workers and thousands of servicemen stayed in the area resulting in the huge growth in population. The last of the citrus groves and produce fields disappeared as Chula Vista became one of the largest communities in San Diego County.[6]
In January 1986, Chula Vista annexed the unincorporated community of Montgomery which had previously rejected annexation in 1979 and 1982. At the time of the annexation the community was virtually surrounded by its larger neighbor.[10] Over the next few decades, Chula Vista continued to expand eastward. Plans called for a variety of housing developments such as Eastlake, Rancho del Rey and Otay Ranch neighborhoods.[9]
Camp Otay/Weber
During World War One and Two The army maintained a base on what is now the corner of Main Street and Albany Avenue. It initially served as a border post during World War One, and was reestablished in December 1942. It was home to the 140th Infantry Regiment, 35th Infantry Division. The base was closed in February 1944, and the division went on to see combat in the European theater. All traces of the post have since been removed.[11]
21st century
In 2003, Chula Vista had 200,000 residents and was the second largest city in San Diego County.[12]
Chula Vista is growing at a fast pace,[9] with major developments taking place in the Otay Valley near the U.S. Olympic Training Center and Otay Lake Reservoir. Thousands of new homes have been built in the Otay Ranch, Lomas Verdes, Rancho Del Rey, Eastlake and Otay Mesa Areas.[13] The South Bay Expressway, a toll-road extension of state route 125, opened November 19, 2007, connecting freeways 805 and 905 with State Route 54.
On May 30, 2006 officials from Chula Vista and the San Diego Chargers met to potentially discuss building a new stadium that would serve as the home for the team. Yet, in June 2009 the Chargers removed Chula Vista as a possible location for a new stadium.[14] In 2009, Chula Vista - along with nine other second tier metropolitan area cities such as Hialeah and Southern California's Santa Ana - was ranked as one of the most boring cities in America by Forbes Magazine;[15] citing the large population but rare mentions of the city in national media. A current development plan in Chula Vista is to develop the bayfront.
Geography
Owning up to its Spanish name origins - beautiful view - Chula Vista is located in the South Bay region of San Diego County, between the foothills of the Jamul and San Ysidro Mountains (including Lower Otay Reservoir) and San Diego Bay on its east and west extremes, and the Sweetwater River and Otay River at its north and south extremes.[16] In South Bay Chula Vista has a large footprint, and aside from South San Diego, it is the largest geographic entity in the region.[citation needed]
Ecological preserves
Chula Vista has within its city limits the Sweetwater Marsh unit of the San Diego Bay NWR.[17] It also maintains several city maintained open space areas.[18]
Climate
Chula Vista has a Mediterranean climate which it shares with San Diego County.[19]
