Small and young seem almost mutually exclusive. Small and international as well.
Are there any small, clean, green (flora), more sunny cities or towns that has a young (20-34), international population on the West Coast of the US?
The only place that even remotely comes to mind is Pasadena but I don't know how lively, young, or international it really is. I know these types of cities have a higher cost of living and thus tend to be taken over by people who are a bit older and have families, and that younger people tend be in big cities. It would be nice if there was sunny, mini-Vancouver (in that it's clean and green) on the west.
I'm not sure a town like this exists in the US. They seem unique to Europe and certain other parts of the world, like Brazil, etc.
The only cities I would consider international on the West Coast are LA, SF, and Seattle. I suppose a case could be made for San Diego, but I dont really consider it that international. Vancouver too but its in Canada.
There's plenty of small diverse towns spread throughout the country. Some in Texas and California. I'm not sure there's any that meat all of your criteria though.

That makes sense! Are there any popular suburbs of those cities like California, like Pasadena, that might fit the bill? I think Northern California might be more promising.

True, I always think the population is too young in those towns. Are there any that you know of that might fit the bill?
It would be interesting to see if there are any in western Canada as well.

They're worth a shot since my knowledge is limited. Any leads that can I can look up?
It doesn't have many 18-24 year olds but 18% is 25-34.
That's not so bad.
I'm looking for Spanish (Spain), Brazilians/South American, and Indian (India) populations since that's my ethnic makeup, it's sort of everywhere.
And between 50,000-500,000 is right, because it's covers small cities and many towns. I'm just looking to move.
I'm suspecting that the towns I would gravitate toward are in Northern California. Like the outskirts of the bay area where the towns are less suburban but might have young people. (Palo Alto is way to suburban I think, but I that's what I felt on my last visit).
Sunnyvale CA has a 10% Indian population. So does Fremont. Santa Clara 9%. Those are the highest in CA for cities of any size. All have very high housing costs and few real young adults. If you are 25-34 and have a high paying job you might make it work.
There are plenty of places in CA with large hispanic populations but I am not aware of how to search by Spanish or South American. For Spanish I'd look in San Diego though the number that identify as Spanish is probably low. For South Americans, look in specific LA neighborhoods.
If you focus on things beyond these specific ethnicities, you might like Santa Rosa. Or Davis.
