In the 1920s; San Clemente founder Ole Hanson envisioned a �Spanish Village� on the Pacific coast halfway between Los Angeles and San Diego. His city would have streets that followed the natural contours of the land. Sunny beaches and perfect climate enticed many to settle in this charming community. Known for its hospitality and neighborly atmosphere; the city became host and home to dignitaries such as Pres. Franklin D. Roosevelt and Pres. Richard M. Nixon. Today; professional surfers; skateboarders; and small businesses call San Clemente home�the perfect place for work and leisure.
