Neighborhood

Uptown Palm Springs is a lavish shopping district in the resort-like city backed by Mount San Jacinto. Local boutiques, vintage sellers, and home décor shops as well as cafes, bistros, and art galleries line the scenic streets. Classic Palm Springs resorts can be found in and just north of Uptown Palm Springs’ limits as well. Apart from the luxurious shopping and dining choices, Uptown Palm Springs features the Desert Regional Medical Center and residential neighborhoods. Renters have choices of Mediterranean-style houses and apartments. More entertainment options are available by heading a few minutes south along Palm Canyon Drive into Downtown Palm Springs. The neighborhood attracts more than shoppers; heading west of town brings residents directly into the trails leading to the mountains.
