Alpine, CA Is Your Typical Small California Town 3.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 16, 2018) If you're looking for the California experience without living smack in the middle of all the craziness, Alpine is just right for you! Living in Alpine means you are close enough to all the action without being stuck in the big city. We have gorgeous weather here, low crime rates ...Read More , plenty of housing and employment, and the best people you'll find anywhere. The only real black mark is the schools. Super high dropout statistics and terrible graduation rates. Thankfully I don't have school-aged children. I hear the state is working to improve things in that area, though.

We do have some fun things to do here. There's Barn Animal Buddies, a petting zoo that you can hire to come to your event such as a birthday party or other celebration, California Overland Desert Excursions for some outdoor adventures, and the Alpine Tavern and Grill for when you want to chill with friends and have a great meal or a few cold ones. Alpine is definitely one of the best areas in California to call home. Read Less
