Old Town was a cosmopolitan frontier During California's Mexican era, 1820s to 1840s, San Diego was a distant frontier, far from Mexico City and the eastern United States. Unlike most of the "old west," trade ships from various countries brought goods from around the world to this sleepy little town. San Diego was far away from the world, yet connected to the world because of its position as an important port town, making it both cosmopolitan and a frontier.
