Ventura County, City of Camarillo
Camarillo is located
in the eastern Oxnard Plain, with the Santa Susana Mountains to the north, the
Conejo Valley to the east, and the western reaches of the Santa Monica
Mountains to the south. The Ventura Freeway (U.S. Route 101) is the city's
primary thoroughfare. Camarillo is named for Adolfo Camarillo, one of the few
Californios (pre-1851 California natives of Spanish ancestry) to retain his
holdings after the arrival of Anglo settlers. Like most Ventura County cities,
it is noted for its resistance to urban sprawl. Some of the most desirable land
in the city limits, located on both sides of the Ventura Freeway, is
permanently zoned for agricultural production. Recently, however, it has seen a
great deal of growth that has been decried by area residents as environmentally
destructive and not well enough planned. Camarillo is primarily a bedroom
community made up of large housing tracts, with elementary schools and small
strip malls serving the nearby neighborhoods. |
