1951 Map of Santa Susana

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The Santa Susana Mountains and Simi Mountain dominate this landscape, where the rugged topography of the Transverse Ranges meets the expanding suburban footprint of the Simi Valley. The map documents a period of rapid transition, with 1969 revisions highlighting new residential tracts spreading across the valley floor near the Simi Valley Freeway. Away from the growing urban center, large landholdings like Marr Ranch and Tapo Ranch occupy the northern canyons, while the Oak Ridge Oil Field and the Tapo Gillibrand Mine illustrate the region's industrial ties to natural resource extraction.
