2015 Map of Camarillo

About this map

Camarillo serves as the focal point of this coastal California landscape, where the urban expansion of Oxnard and Thousand Oaks meets the productive agriculture of Pleasant Valley. The map documents a complex mix of mid-20th-century infrastructure and modern institutional growth, featuring the historic core of Old Town alongside the sprawling Camarillo Airport. The southern reaches are defined by the transition from flat valley floors to the foothills of the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area, where California State University-Channel Islands occupies a prominent site near Round Mtn. Water management is central to the area's geography, with Calleguas Creek and Revolon Slough draining the plains. Significant military and industrial footprints are evident at the Point Mugu Naval Air Station and along the Union Pacific rail corridor that links these coastal communities.
