"Approximately 1.2 million people live in San Diego, making it the 7th largest city in the United States. Although the city’s population keeps increasing, San Diego has not lost its small town ambiance, and it retains a strong connection with its Hispanic heritage and culture” (Frommer’s Portable San Diego, p. 1).
