Oceanside is the largest city in North San Diego County, with about 170,000 residents on the coast between San Diego and Orange County. It sits at the main gate of Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, one of the largest military bases in the country, and its beaches, pier and harbor draw visitors year-round, so military, commuter and tourist traffic all pass through the city.
Billboards here reach heavy traffic on I-5, the main coastal route between San Diego and Los Angeles, along with SR-76 and SR-78 and busy local roads such as College Boulevard, El Camino Real, Mission Avenue, Oceanside Boulevard, Coast Highway, Vista Way and Rancho del Oro Drive. Strong placements include the I-5 corridor near the pier and Camp Pendleton gate, the SR-78 retail corridor near Plaza Camino Real, the Oceanside Boulevard and Mission Avenue shopping areas, and routes near the Oceanside Transit Center, Mission San Luis Rey, MiraCosta College, Tri-City Medical Center and Frontwave Arena.
