About this map

The Santa Ana River flows through a landscape transitioning between agricultural roots and mid-century suburban expansion during this 1967 revision. Extensive citrus groves and rural blocks around Mira Loma and Norco are increasingly defined by institutional footprints and early infrastructure. The presence of the Naval Reservation and the California Rehabilitation Center surrounding Lake Norconian highlights the region's significant military and state land use.

Transportation corridors like the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad and the Riverside Freeway segment the terrain, while the Prado Flood Control Basin dominates the southwestern corner. Local education and community life are well-documented through labels for La Sierra College, Norco High Sch, and the Crestlawn Memorial Park (Cem), providing a detailed look at the social geography of the northern Corona area before later development further altered the Temescal Wash.
