If you are thinking of a place to live near the California Coast some of the best weather in the World you might consider it. Lots businesses, customers and cash flow. We visited Legoland in Carlsbad, California. What a great theme park for the whole family. Carlsbad is also known for being the golf club manufacturing capital of the world. It is home to Cushnet, Taylormade, and Callaway. We offer our condolences to Eli Callaway who is one of the true founding fathers of modern day golf equipment. "Thank You Mr. Callaway for a great life and for the great support you have given to the sport of golf." While in Carlsbad we spoke with the Carlsbad Chamber of Commerce about the growth of the area. The Carlsbad Chamber has a transportation committee, with sub committee focusing on mobile service. This Chamber of Commerce there is 1700 members strong, representing every business sector. It would be a great place to establish a franchise business or any independent business. All the cities of the area are good and a service business could do great running multiple crews in all the surrounding cities such as: Carlsbad San Marcos Vista Encinitas Escandido Fallbrook Del Mar Solana Beach Oceanside If you think San Diego is out of your price range, you need to take a look at the expanding North County area. It is growing up middle class fast and seems to be a worthy place to hang your hat or run a small business. Think on this.
