Imperial County, California
Imperial County is about as far south and east as you can get in California. It’s mostly desert area so it’s hot and dry most of the year.
The Salton Sea, California’s biggest inland lake, is here. It’s… interesting to say the least. Smelly, but the birds love it.
The county’s population is just over 195,000, but it’s spread out. If you’re into off-roading, the Imperial Sand Dunes are a major draw. Imperial County is hot, it’s dry, and it has a unique kind of beauty you won’t find anywhere else.
