Alpine Real Estate - A Top AgentAlpine is a picturesque foothill village with many attractive homes and small ranches nestled among the oaks, sycamores, eucalyptus and pepper trees, amid rolling hills covered with chaparral and sage. The first people to enjoy the City's fine climate were the Kumeyaay Indians, who lived here around 1,000 years ago. They are one of the many tribes whom the early Catholic Missionaries grouped under the name Diegueno. The descendants of these people are a vital part of our present community. Alpine began as a stage stop for the mines in the Cuyamaca Mountains. Drivers hauling supplies to the mines and delivering gold to San Diego stopped to rest and change horses before continuing up the rough trail to the Cuyamacas or down to the hazardous trails to the coast. Although the stage stop was only a barn and small store, there was an abundant supply of fresh water from the spring in front of the store. Alpine's population gradually increased as the miners spread stories about the area's scenic beauty and fresh water. Alpine real estate gained world wide publicity during World War I, when a U.S. Government survey declared the City's climate the most equable in the nation. "Best Climate in the U.S.A. by Government Report" became the town slogan. [ Home | Selling | Buying | Search Listings | Power Search | Contact ]
