Finding A Temecula Real Estate

The new homes of Temecula real estate are located in southwestern Riverside County

, California. It is a newer town, incorporated on December 1, 1989 that now has a population of just over 100,000. It is bordered by Murrieta on the northwest and the Pechanga Indian Reservation on the south. There are unincorporated areas of Riverside County on all of its other borders. This area is conveniently located near the Temecula Valley Freeway (Interstate 15), the Winchester Road to the northeast and the Temecula Parkway to the southeast, making travel easy and convenient.

Temecula real estate is located in an area of California known as the Inland Empire, and it is almost equidistant to San Diego, Orange County and Los Angeles. There are many military families in the area from Camp Pendleton, March Air Reserve Base, MCAS Miramar and the naval bases in San Diego. Long ago, living in the area were natives that occupied Temecula for hundreds of years before Spanish missionaries arrived. It is believed that some natives had been in the area for 10,000 years.

In Pechanga mythology, the area was known as Exva Temeeku, which means "The Place of the Union of Sky and Earth." In the mythology life on earth began in the Valley. Also, the native Temecula Indians called the area Temeekunga, which means "The Place of the Sun." There are a few other interpretations of the city's name, including "Where the Sun Breaks Through the Mist" and "The Sun that Shines Through the Mist." The city is the only one in California that still retains its original Indian name.

In the mid 1850s a stagecoach line was started that ran from Colton to Warner Ranch, running right through Temecula. By 1858 the Butterfield Overland Mail Stagecoach Line stopped there near Temecula real estate as part of the route from St. Louis, Missouri to San Francisco. In 1859 the local post office was established, which was only the second post office in the entire state, following San Francisco. The Civil War brought the end of that stagecoach line and the stage service.

In the 1890s, the quarrying of granite brought much revenue and commerce and many people to the area. Granite was used all over the state for curb stones, courthouse steps and building blocks in buildings, many of which are still standing today. The area on which Temecula real estate is located became an important shipping point for grains and cattle, among other goods.
