History

The first lots sold in Ocean Beach were sold in 1887 at a mussel roast on the beach. Ocean Beach and Sunset Cliffs are adjacent neighborhoods sharing the same zip code, 92107. It was first established as a resort town and went through many changes as the real estate market bust took its toll on the area both in the 1890s. The area was also greatly affected during the stock market crash in 1929. However, Sunset Cliffs really began to thrive in the 1930s and construction continued strongly through the 1950s. Consequently, there are many architecturally important homes in the area.
 
Present-day Sunset Cliffs have a somewhat eclectic population. Homes range in price from multi-million dollar estates to small one-bedroom condominiums.
