Sand City

Sand City is a small town resting on 347 acres of coastline. It was originally named for the sand-mining operations that were once its only industry. Today, Sand City's two large shopping centers have made it a regional retail powerhouse. In addition to these retail centers, it is also an industrial center that is home to a growing number of artists and artisans. Incorporated in 1960, over 4,000 people come to work in Sand City every day, but the city has a population of fewer than 300. Sand City has big plans for an ultimate permanent population of 1,300. To that end, it is being re-planned, with future high-end coastal resorts slated for a portion of the shore, and is welcoming to new businesses. Median income in Sand City is comparable to that of the state and the nation.
