Neighborhood overview

What Racquet Club West is like

Racquet Club West takes part of its identity from the historic Racquet Club that helped make Palm Springs a Hollywood retreat. Its varied housing and generous parcels create a less uniform streetscape than the tract neighborhoods nearby.

This is a concise orientation, not a boundary or property-level determination. Use the official neighborhood map for an address lookup.
