"Imperial Beach Presses Forward as Pollution Crisis Persists"
Sandi Crosby, President of the Imperial Beach Chamber of Commerce and Broker Associate with Crosby Home Team, was quoted in the San Diego Union-Tribune as a leading voice on the economic impact of the Tijuana River pollution crisis. She provided direct data on property value declines and spoke to the community's resilience in pressing forward despite ongoing challenges.
"Property values in Imperial Beach have declined an estimated 12–15% in recent years due to the pollution crisis, and buyers have been hesitant to move families here."
