About this map

The Guadalupe Oil Field and the surrounding agricultural landscape define this coastal stretch of Santa Barbara County during the late 1950s. The town of Guadalupe stands as a central hub where the Southern Pacific railroad meets the Cabrillo Highway, facilitating the transport of goods from the surrounding Santa Maria Valley. To the south, the industrial character of the region is evident at the Airox Mine and NTU Mine near Casmalia, revealing the importance of mineral extraction alongside the established ranching traditions at Marshallia Ranch and Corralitos Ranch.
