About this map

Corral de Piedra Grant and Santa Manuela Grant define the historical land division of this coastal California region during the mid-1990s. The landscape transitions from the suburban edges of Grover Beach and Pismo Beach into the specialized agriculture and oil-producing territory around Edna. Local education is well-represented through institutions such as Independence School, Los Ranchos School, and St Patricks School, while the presence of the Terminal 1055-002 Dam Filtration Plant and several Gravel Pits points to the region's infrastructure and industrial activity.

The topography is dominated by dramatic drainages like Davenport Creek and Arroyo Grande Creek which cut through canyons such as Canada Verde and Newsom Canyon. Public lands and recreational spaces, including the Los Padres National Forest and Lopez Lake Recreation Area, anchor the eastern portion of the map, illustrating the balance between residential growth and protected open space at the end of the century.
