"I Don't Like Beaumont, in California- Its too Windy!" or Beaumont's Bad Rap as the Windy City

As an agent focused on the Beaumont, California area, and as a Beaumont resident- I hear this negative comment from time to time from clients, friends and family members semi-familiar with the area. Yes we can have some gusts now and again. Yes its more breezy here in Beaumont compared to say, Redlands. Yes we had a wind storm in 2007. And yes when I first moved here to Beaumontthe first thing my next door neighbor said was "I hope you like the wind!"

But consider this. Yes Beaumont is typically cooler than the lower inland valley areas, like Redlands and Mentone, and to a lesser extent Yucaipa and Calimesa. Yes Beaumont has almost no smog, even when San Bernardino and Riversideis choking on it. Yes the weather is mostly so calm you couldn't get a kite off the ground. And yes if you're the right kind of homeowner that enjoys living at th the base of the San Gorgornio Mountains, with the smell of mountain pine trees, and the clear blue skies above you, golf courseseverywhere, and the occasional breezy day, then Beaumont is for you. I know its for me!

Seriously, though. The wind is a small factor here in Beaumont, California. And yes, I think Beaumont has gotten a bad rap for being the Inland Empire's Windy City. Consider how close Yucaipa and Calimesa are to Beaumont- literally 5 to 10 miles down the 10 Freeway! I drive into Redlands every day and the weather/wind factor is usually the same,  Maybe five to ten days out of the year its windy in Beaumont, and not in the rest of the Inland areas. The only constant difference is the smog- Yuck!

To be fair, every day in the late afternoon, a light leaf-movin' breeze grazes through Beaumont, CA. It makes for a very comfortable afternoon in the backyard, especially in the summer months.

And now here comes my pitch: And considering you can get a new, contemporary home for $73 a square foot, with more rooms and more living space, and in home-value supporting neighborhood conformity, compared to say Redlands, with standard square footage costs around $150, mostly older pre-1960 homes, and nonconforming neighborhoods, the breeze now and again feels good on my full wallet.
