Description
US 111B (N. Palm Canyon Drive), looking south near the intersection with E .Amado Rd.; Palm Springs is a Sonoran Desert resort city in Riverside County, California, within the Coachella Valley. Palm Springs is sheltered by the San Bernardino Mountains to the north, the Santa Rosa Mountains to the south, by the San Jacinto Mountains to the west and by the Little San Bernardino Mountains to the east. The population was 44,552 as of the 2010 census. Palm Springs covers approximately 94 square miles (240 km2). The city first became a fashionable resort in the early 1900s when health tourists arrived with conditions (usually tuberculosis) that required dry heat.
