Gold & white metallic, from our Corona shopFloors for how Vista actually works
The City of Vista says it has nearly 20 craft breweries. Light manufacturing has moved into Vista since the 1980s, and top employers include Watkins Manufacturing, Fresh Creative Foods and Dr. Bronner's. Brewhouses and food production need urethane cement that handles hot water and cleaning chemicals, and manufacturing floors in Vista Business Park need durable, cleanable systems.
Most of Vista's housing is single-family homes, and more residents own than rent. Neighborhoods such as Downtown Vista, Delpy Corners and Brengle Terrace have a mix of older and newer slabs.
