Communities of Greater Palm Springs

Framed by the striking San Jacinto and Santa Rosa mountains and the untamed beauty of Joshua Tree National Park, Greater Palm Springs is more than a place to visit, it’s a place to build, grow, thrive, and shine.

For over a century, visionaries, creatives, and entrepreneurs have been drawn here not just for the tranquility, but for the inspiration it sparks. With nine distinct cities — Palm Springs, Desert Hot Springs, Cathedral City, Rancho Mirage, Palm Desert, Indian Wells, La Quinta, Indio, and Coachella — and vibrant unincorporated Tribal communities whose cultural heritage continues to shape the region, Greater Palm Springs is a uniquely dynamic environment for business and innovation.

Whether you're launching a startup, relocating your company, or embracing remote work, this region offers unmatched lifestyle perks, business-friendly policies, and space to think big. Co-working spaces with panoramic views, seamless access to air travel, and a growing talent pipeline make it easy to plug in and get to work, then unplug in nature just minutes away.

Here, professional growth and personal well-being go hand in hand. If you’re ready to rethink where and how you work, you just might find your perfect balance, and your next big opportunity, right here.
