Indio, California. Indio began as an Indian
Village with Native Americans finding palm oases along the San Andreas Fault
zone in the Indio Hills and the Whitewater River flowing through the Valley
to ancient lakes attractive settlement locations. Indio incorporated as a
city in 1930 becoming the Valley’s first city and at the time had a
population of 1,875.
In addition to beginning
as a railroad town, tourism played a roll in Indio’s formation and growth.
In 1901, the Riverside Press newspaper reported amusements included ‘tennis,
croquet, baseball, mountain climbing, and tramps along the desert”. In
1903, a tennis health camp opened near the Indio railroad depot to take
advantage of the much publicized health benefits from Valley’s climate.
Today, the City of Indio
makes a point to provide involvement with their citizens that allows town
and residents to work together. The area strongly promotes its cultural and
ethnic diversity, cares for its children and their future, seeks development
to create local jobs and a vibrant economy, and provides quality services.
