The city of Indian Wells is home to some of the country’s wealthiest retirees who flock to world-class golf courses once played by entertainer Bing Crosby and President Dwight D. Eisenhower. Indian Wells has always been a destination of the privileged class. It’s home every year to the Bob Hope Chrysler Classic golf tournament and the prestigious Desert Town Hall of Indian Wells lecture series. The Renaissance Esmeralda, Hyatt Grand Champions and Miramonte resorts are some of the world’s finest desert getaways and have served as conference destinations for groups ranging from Fortune 500 companies to the Republican National Committee.
Native Americans first visited the spot that became Indian Wells centuries ago. It later became a stop on the Bradshaw Stage line. Today, the city focuses on landscape and beautification. In 1990, the city won a national citation of excellence in urban design from the American Institute of Architects, for its beautification effort of a former stagecoach trail within city limits. In addition to preserving its resort and residential status, the city hopes to become the Coachella Valley’s financial district, enticing brokerage, accounting and banking firms to build and settle within city limits.
