Enjoy the Dramatic Arts in Vista

Situated in the northern reaches of San Diego County, Vista has been a city for decades, but became a charter city just a few years ago. Vista lies seven miles from the Pacific coastline and features a pleasant Mediterranean climate. One of San Diego County's larger communities, Vista has almost 95,000 permanent inhabitants.

According to a review conducted in 2008, Vista is the seventh-finest place in the United States to raise a family. Factors in the survey included such issues as cost of living, climate, and educational opportunities for youth. Had the arts also been heavily weighted, Vista might even have scored higher since it is the home to two separate theatre companies, both of them supported through city funding: the Avo Playhouse and the Moonlight Amphitheatre. The latter theater was recently renovated. It consists of an open-air theater where a variety of musical productions is performed. The Moonlight Amphitheatre operates during the summer months, but tourists who come to enjoy holiday homes in Vista during the winter can enjoy the plays that are put on at the Avo Playhouse during the 'off season' of the Moonlight Amphitheatre.

Physical recreational facilities are available at area parks, including Brengle Terrace Park and the Guajome County Park where the Moonlight Amphitheatre is also housed. Guajome, in fact, also includes such amenities as a botanical garden administered by the city, a baseball field, a playground for children of all ages, and a senior center. All of these are possible, with ample green space besides, because Guajome has more than 550 acres of land.
