Alpine

Most of its residents are between 18 and 62, with around 40 percent of residents over retirement age. The median age is around 46 years old, so the community is best for those well into life and career and raising families. However, it has a lot young people too with many falling between 18 and 21 years old. Alpine is located in the Cuyamaca Mountains of San Diego County. It is mostly surrounded by the Cleveland National Forest. It also has two Native American reservations of the Kumeyaay Nation along its borders that include Viejas and Sycuan. Scenic views and natural beauty everywhere.
Nestled in the foothills of the Cuyamaca Mountains of San Diego County, Alpine is a historic mountain community dating back to the early settlers of Southern California. Since the pioneer days, Alpine has drawn many to enjoy scenic vistas, fresh air, and pleasant climate. Visitors often remark on the preservation of Alpine's small town charm despite the proximity to a bustling metropolitan region. We agree: Alpine is a jewel of quiet country living less than half an hour from Downtown San Diego
 
Located just off Highway 8 on the way to the Viejas Casino, Alpine provides a welcome stop-over for food, services,  gas and shopping. Alpine is home to Lions, Tigers and Bears, a rescue conservatory that offers educational experiences to the public.
