Coronado means crowned on in Spanish and that is why it is nicknamed the Crown City. It is actually an island that is connected to California by a small piece of land called a tombolo and is considered a vacation town. How could you feel sad if you live in a vacation town? Easy. 

Depression has nothing to do with the town you live in. It can be a chemical imbalance in the brain, hereditary, or it could even be caused by an underlying physical illness. Luckily, the City of Coronado has a plethora of counselors who can help with depression and other mental health conditions.
