About Old Town San Diego

Old Town San Diego is bound by Interstate Eight, Mission Hills, Bankers Hill, and Interstate Five. As its name would suggest, this neighborhood is the historic heart of San Diego. Even further, Old Town San Diego was the first site of European settlement in the state of California. Starting in the 1860s, the bulk of city commerce rapidly moved to and stayed in Downtown San Diego, then called "New Town," due to its favorable proximity to trade routes. However, Old Town San Diego still remains a charming, quaint area with many historical sites, fun events, and recreational activities.

Fun fact: Under Mexican jurisdiction, Old Town was granted pueblo (charted town) status in 1834, which was revoked a mere four years later on account of population decline.
