DOG-FRIENDLY PARKS IN CHULA VISTA, CA

San Diego's southern border city holds 275,000 residents in communities stretching from San Diego Bay to mountain foothills just miles from Mexico. Mediterranean climate provides mild temperatures year-round—winter lows around 50°F, summer highs in the mid-70s—with only 10 inches of annual rainfall concentrated in winter months. Coastal influence moderates temperature extremes while morning fog often blankets the bay. Growing Hispanic population reflects the city's border position as suburban development climbs eastward into canyons and mesas.
