The lifestyle in Palm Desert · the California desert · Riverside County
The lifestyle scene in Palm Desert, California.
Palm Desert is an affluent, manicured resort city at the valley's center — El Paseo shopping, the McCallum Theatre, world-class golf, and a permanent population that skews older, wealthier, and more conservative than Palm Springs but with the same reliance on the desert resort economy. It's quieter and less party-forward than its neighbor to the west, with a country-club culture that keeps its lifestyle activity discreet.
What the scene looks like here
Palm Desert is centrally positioned in the Coachella Valley resort corridor — Exotic Dreams Resort in Palm Springs is about 14 miles west, and the Desert Hot Springs resorts (Sea Mountain Inn and Secret Springs) are 20 to 25 miles northwest. For couples based in Palm Desert, all three resort properties are within a 30-minute drive. The valley's lifestyle scene runs on resort weekends and long weekends rather than weekly club nights, and getting verified is how you learn which events are scheduled rather than guessing at resort availability.
