SIX FACTS ABOUT
IT’S THE SECOND OLDEST CITY IN THE COUNTY
National City was officially incorporated on September 17, 1887, making it the second oldest city in San Diego County. The only older city is San Diego itself, which was incorporated in 1850.
THE MILE OF CARS USED TO HAVE A DIFFERENT NAME
Post-World War II, National City Blvd earned the nickname “Mile of Bars” due to its high concentration of sailor-frequented establishments. Efforts to change this image led to the closure of the bars, replaced by car dealerships, and the street's nickname shifted to “Mile of Cars.”
NATIONAL CITY HAS A CONCENTRATION OF HISTORIC HOMES
National City boomed in the 19th century, when it was designated to be the terminus of a national rail system, the rush of home construction left behind the most Victorian homes per capita in all of San Diego county. More than 250 historic Victorian homes remain.
THE 1ST SAN DIEGO COUNTY FAIR WAS HELD IN NATIONAL CITY
In 1880, the very first edition of the San Diego County Fair was established in National City to show off its abundance of agricultural products, including lemons, oranges, and olives.
SAN DIEGO’S FIRST MODERN HOME WAS BUILT IN NATIONAL CITY
In 1868, San Francisco contractors Frank, Warren, and Levi Kimball bought Rancho de la Nación, and subsequently established the city here. The Kimball brother built himself a home here, which featured a bathtub and hot, running water; the first home in all fo San Diego to boast such modern amenities!
NATIONAL CITY OWES ITS NAME TO MEXICO’S INDEPENDENCE
When the Spanish settled in San Diego, the land that is now National City was used by royal troops and was known as 'Ranch of the King.' After Mexico declared independence from Spain in 1810, California eventually came under Mexican control, and the ranch was renamed 'Ranch of the Nation.’
