Why I Love Oceanside
Our City has so much to offer! Our Chamber Members share why they love where they live and their passion for our community.
W H Y I L O V E I was born in Oceanside, live in Oceanside and I have a business based out of Oceanside! I love my Oceanside because it is a perfect, diverse, full of C A L I F O R N I A coastal life town! I get can get to SD, OC and Temecula by 30 minutes. The distance is perfect for my business and our family outings. My family and I enjoy volunteering at different Oceanside events including Turkey Trot, Heart Walk, Oceanside
Independence Parade and more! Let’s not forget Oceanside has yearly wonderful events that we love to attend including Powwow, Annual Filipino Cultural Celebration, Noche Mexicana… Rita Lavasanipour

The people! That’s what I love about Oceanside. We have such a diverse, passionate community; weaving together a vibrant tapestry that is Oceanside. The rich stories and
“connectedness” throughout the community, never cease to amaze me. From long-time serving families to young, creatives, our entrepreneurial spirit is unmatched yet so driven to preserve and honor the culture that is uniquely the O’side vibe. Leslee Gaul
I love Oceanside for the unique Visit Oceanside ® individuality of the people who live here, and the added perk of being one of the best foodie scenes in Southern
California! From mussels and truffle fries at the Flying Pig to acai bowls at the Buccaneer Cafe, Oceanside definitely celebrates local flavor (and flair!). We are all trying every day to better our community and grow our economy… and it shows. Haley (Peterson) Wonsley
“I love the members of my family: Oceanside has become family for me.
Oceanside is a beautiful, vibrant and safe city and it is a city of great promise. Oceansiders work together every day to achieve this promise. The heart of every thriving city is its people. I love Oceanside because of its people—the people who staff the city, its chamber of commerce, its businesses, its educational
Intesa Communications Group institutions and its interconnected web of deeply Why do I love Oceanside? Is it the beautiful ocean to the west or the mountains to the east? Is it the committed non-profit service providers.” Rafe Edward Trickey, Jr., Ed.D.
Oceanside Promise
proximity to “America’s Finest City” while having an outside the city feel? The reason why I love Oceanside is all of that and more. It is the people that live here. It is the massive military presence next door and throughout our community. It is the civilians that support those military personnel. Oceanside is a special community, with special people, with an amazing history.

I love Oceanside because of the strong sense of community. It’s one of the last affordable beach communities in Southern, CA with plenty of local small businesses to shop, dine, and play. The people are what set Oceanside apart. They are down to earth, passionate, and energetic. People here have pride in where they work and live, and getting to be a small part of that has been very rewarding. Christopher Weiner
