It
makes sense that Carlsbad
has bred and sent out into
the world some physically
adept action figures—especially
skateboarders and drivers
of highest acclaim! It therefore
follows logically that with
the upward-sized town in southern
California come great achievements
and in the city exist great
attractions for future residents.
For instance, the FOX TV
series, Point Pleasant, is
filmed in Carlsbad, California.
The rocket research hardware
supplier to NASA, Blacksky
Corporation, is also housed
in Carlsbad. And Switchfoot
band members, Jon Foreman
on vocals and guitar and Tim
Foreman on bass and backup,
make Carlsbad their home (away
from home).
With a population in 2000
of close to eighty thousand,
the moderately affordable
city continues to produce
winners of all walks. Living
in homes that average about
$330k (as of 2000), and earning
incomes of over 65,000 on
average, the residents of
Carlsbad, California—who
are, again on the average,
about 38 years of age—are
almost all at least high school
grads, half of who travel
under 30 minutes to work in
respectable disciplines and
fields in education, health
services, social services,
professional and scientific
services, manufacturing, and
retail.
The crime is exceptionally
low in Carlsbad (with only
four murders in four years,
for example); and the weather
is as moderate as the local
temperament. Testimony of
the quality of the city as
a place to be born, to grow
up, and/or to retire is all
here, in the "trivia"
about the great ones who come
before.
