About this map

Auburn serves as the focal point of this Placer County survey, situated at the confluence of several vital transportation corridors during the early 1940s. The Southern Pacific railroad and the Pacific Highway parallel one another as they climb the foothills, linking the agricultural settlements of Rocklin, Loomis, Penryn, and Newcastle. The map reveals a high density of rural schoolhouses, such as the Japanese Sch and the Union Grammar Sch, indicating a well-established social fabric in the fruit-growing districts surrounding Ophir and Gold Hill.
