The Comfort of Being 'Regulars' in a Transplant Town

Palm Springs neighborhood street with desert vegetation

Palm Springs is full of people who moved here from somewhere else — but we've found a surprising kind of stability.

Our experience

A lot of servers and bartenders are semi-retired or long-term locals who stay at the same spots for years, which means familiar faces every season. There's something deeply comforting about walking in somewhere and being recognized — especially when you split your life between states or cities. Over time, Palm Springs stops feeling like a destination and starts feeling like a small town where the staff at your favorite places are part of your extended social circle.

Try it

Stay close to your future 'regulars' with a swap on HomeExchange or a walkable stay through Klook.
