Live Here
Maybe it’s our California spirit of innovation or just our appreciation for the California Coastal lifestyle, but the CEOs who run our respected businesses, as well as the entrepreneurs dreaming up the next generation of businesses, know that San Luis Obispo is a place where you can succeed professionally without sacrificing your personal life.
The city of SLO, which is both the cultural and business heart of the county, consistently ranks as one of the best places in the United States to live.
SLO offers a sunny and mild climate all year long, the charm of a small town, great educational systems, easy access to an active lifestyle, a vibrant cultural scene, clean air, low crime rates, no traffic headaches, a bike and pedestrian-friendly community, and exceptional healthcare. These are just some of the reasons why San Luis Obispo is considered the happiest city in the nation.
