1951 Map of Moorpark
USGS Topo · Published 1970About this map
Santa Clara River bottomlands and the rugged terrain of South Mountain define this mid-century view of Ventura County. The landscape is characterized by deep drainage systems like Grimes Canyon and Balcom Canyon that cut through Oak Ridge, separating the northern citrus groves of Bardsdale from the emerging ranch and residential developments to the south. Purple revisions added in 1969 show the growth of Moorpark near the Southern Pacific tracks, including new streets and the expansion of Moorpark Home Acres. Local infrastructure is well-documented, from the Bardsdale Cem and Union High Sch to the winding course of Arroyo Las Posas. The transition from rural foothills to the structured grid of Simi Valley is evident, particularly around the settlements of Epworth and Fairview.
