San Diego might be known for its idyllic climate, miles of beaches, and surfer lifestyle, but what if I told you about an hour away in northern San Diego County there’s the small town of Fallbrook that deserves its moment in the spotlight (and has a great opportunity for a veterinarian!)

A bit off the beaten path, Fallbrook is a beautiful beach town with significant opportunities you and your family will love. There are dozens of good reasons to call Fallbrook home, but we’ve narrowed it down to six.

1. If you love avocados, you’re in luck! Fallbrook is known as the Avocado Capital of the World and has 60+ retail and wholesale nurseries
2. The cost of living is more affordable than other San Diego County communities. It might seem unimaginable, but in Fallbrook, average, middle-class families can live comfortably! In fact, occupational jobs are 26% blue-collar and the average household income is in the low $80,000s.
3. The people! Fallbrook is the kind of town where nobody is a stranger, and most people have two things in common: they are family-oriented and love the outdoors
4. Some of the best wines in Southern California are found in Fallbrook (Casa Tiene Vista Vineyard and Estate d’ Iacobelli Winery are two top-notch Italian-styled treasures)
5. Farm-to-table finds. In addition to picking your own fresh fruit, gourds, or flowers, local restaurants also utilize Fallbrook’s farms for the freshest ingredients
6. Fallbrook has a diverse job market and is a town of hard-working individuals who support the American Dream

Now that you can imagine your life in Fallbrook, think how great a career with Fallbrook Animal Hospital would be!
