San Marcos

Incorporated in 1963, San Marcos is a thriving city in northern San Diego County, home to approximately 95,000 residents. As the location of both Cal State San Marcos and Palomar College, the city is an educational hub that fosters learning and community growth.

San Marcos offers a laid-back lifestyle, nestled between Vista and Escondido. Often regarded as a hidden gem, it balances suburban living with access to natural beauty. The city is home to two stunning lakes—Lake San Marcos, a serene destination for water activities, and Discovery Lake, surrounded by hiking trails that showcase the area’s scenic charm.

San Marcos is also home of San Elijo Hills, a master planned community located in the southwest region of the city. 

San Marcos High School is celebrated for its modern, state-of-the-art facilities. Meanwhile, shoppers flock to Grand Plaza for a variety of retail options, and Furniture Row has become a go-to destination for home furnishing needs.

With a slightly warmer and drier climate than its western neighbors, San Marcos is an inviting place to live but also prone to challenges like drywood termites. Homeowners in the area understand the importance of proactive pest management to protect their properties.

California Termite is proud to serve the San Marcos community, providing reliable and effective solutions to keep homes and businesses safe from termites while preserving the city’s welcoming character.
