The
City of Vista is strategically located between Southern California’s
largest trading centers: Los Angeles is 90 miles to the North,
Orange County 45 miles North and San Diego 35 miles South. This
dynamic city is located seven miles from the pacific ocean.
It has been called the "climatic wonderland" of the United States. Vista
is acknowledged to have probably the finest and most moderate
climate of any city in the United States. The City has six times
the national average number of parks.
Despite tremendous growth, Vista still enjoys a low crime rate
that is more often associated with a small town.
This is a testament to the close working relationship
between the Sheriff’s Department and the Vista community.
The main sheriff’s station is located in the North
County Regional Law Complex, which houses several County offices,
including; the superior court, district attorney’s office,
probation and the Vista Detention Facility.
