About this map

Santa Clarita and its surrounding communities sit at the junction of the Santa Susana Mountains and the San Gabriel Mountains, where the Santa Clara River and the S Fork Santa Clara River shape the valley's development. This survey reveals a landscape of high-density suburban expansion interwoven with significant canyons like San Francisquito Canyon, Bouquet Canyon, and Haskell Canyon. The area’s character as a regional educational and judicial hub is evident through the presence of the California Institute of the Arts, College of the Canyons, and the Los Angeles County Santa Clarita Courthouse. While much of the terrain is dedicated to the residential neighborhoods of Stevenson Ranch, Valencia, and Saugus, the northern and eastern reaches are dominated by the Angeles National Forest, illustrating the sharp boundary between urban growth and protected mountain wilderness.
