Nestled between the Santa Susana and San Gabriel Mountains, Santa Clarita is a unique city in California that sits just north of the San Fernando Valley. Its proximity to Los Angeles provides commuter access to the city, and since it was incorporated over three decades ago, thirty-two different communities have been annexed into its limits. The annexing of additional communities increased the square mileage of the city by 18.1 and increased the population significantly.
Spanish colonists established the Rancho San Francisco in Alta, California, which encompassed much of the Santa Clarita Valley. Following the purchase of this land, the towns of Newhall and Saugus were established and a major company, the Newhall Land and Farming Company, played a significant role in the development of the area. When the city was incorporated, it included four main communities: Valencia, Canyon Country, Saugus, and Newhall. They remain as separate identities even though they all fall within the city limits.
Three institutions of higher education have campuses in Santa Clarita, so a portion of its population includes college students. These schools include the California Institute of the Arts, the College of the Canyons, and the Master's University. Several major corporations are headquartered in the city as well, contributing to the economy. These include Sunkist, the Newhall Land and Farming Company, and Princess Cruises.
Each of the four communities within Santa Clarita has its own unique identity, with shopping, dining, and entertainment venues for residents. Canyon County and Saugus are the most historic of the bunch.
The proximity to Los Angeles and Orange counties makes Santa Clarita a convenient and accessible place to call home.
