The City of Desert Hot Springs was founded on opportunity. Early settlers discovered a true oasis in the desert some of the world’s finest naturally occurring hot mineral waters and built a thriving community around these life-giving resources. Our city and the businesses that choose to put down roots here have seized upon the same spirit of innovation and foresight that inspired those early settlers, creating a vibrant 21st century city with an increasingly diverse economy.
