Wikipedia, July 5, 2018 (La Jolla; La Jolla ... is a hilly seaside and affluent community within the city of San Diego, California, United States occupying 7 miles (11 km) of curving coastline along the Pacific Ocean within the northern city limits; Local Native Americans, the Kumeyaay, called this location mat kulaaxuuy ... "land of holes"; An alternative, pseudo-etymological suggestion for the origin of the name is that it is an alternate spelling of the Spanish word la joya, which means "the jewel" ... That supposed origin gave rise to the nickname "Jewel City"; coordinates: 32°50ʹ24ʺN, 117°16ʹ37ʺW)
