^^ Best advice yet.

This area is about to embark on one of the most political and financial fights in Southern California history—water rights. There is also the on-again-off-again bullet train proposal from Imperial Valley to San Diego. If you do not visit this area first, you will be in for such a cultural, geography, demographic shock that you may never recover—no joke.

That's the thing....I have 30 day notice before I have to leave for training, which is 8 months and in Georgia and then as soon as training is done, I have to be ready to work in El Centro! So, no I have no way of visitng either place...

Use Google Earth, and Google Maps Street View to at that very least peruse the area. El Centro is flat in topography and there is not a helluva a lot going on. Commuting will prove too much of a pain, and you will be dealing with major trucker routes. Purchasing a residence there will be in your favor as prices are down there greatly; only consider purchasing after you have moved there first and scouted the area.
