Landscaping in Carlsbad
Carlsbad is a coastal North County city with a mild climate, ocean breezes and a large share of homes in master-planned communities such as La Costa and Aviara, many governed by HOAs with landscape rules. Lagoons and canyons run through the city, and lots that back up to open space can have restrictions on clearing and planting. Most homes get water from the Carlsbad Municipal Water District, though some areas are served by neighboring districts.
