Cardiff-by-the-Sea, often referred to as Cardiff, is a beach
community located between Encinitas and Solana Beach in San
Diego County, California. The Pacific Ocean is to the west of
Cardiff, Encinitas on its east and north, and a beach and lagoon
on its south. With a population of under 12,000,
Cardiff-by-the-Sea operates as part of the city of Encinitas,
but has its own ZIP code (92007), unlike the other communities
that comprise parts of Encinitas: Leucadia and Olivenhain. In 1911, this former farming community began to develop Cardiff when developer J. Frank Cullen broke ground to build new homes. It is reported by the Cardiff Chamber of Commerce that it was Frank Cullen's wife, a native of Cardiff, Wales, who persuaded him to name the community Cardiff. Many streets in Cardiff bear names this English-born landowner grew up with in his native UK. Birmingham, Oxford, Chesterfield, and Manchester are major streets.
