About the Area
Fullerton, a city of more than 125,000 inhabitants, is located in North Orange County, about 30 miles southeast of central Los Angeles. It is part of the Southern California population center and within easy freeway access of all the diverse natural and cultural attractions of this region.

Orange County, with an area of 782 square miles, is the 48th in size of California’s 58 counties, but it is the third largest county in population (2.9 million). Orange County has experienced during the last four decades almost unprecedented growth as communities continue to occupy the diminishing expanses of open land.

Today, there co-exists an interesting mixture of the old and new economic and life styles in Orange County. Underneath the soil, archeologists and bulldozers uncover traces of the hunting and gathering Indian bands who flourished at least as early as 4,000 years ago in what was a benign and bountiful region.

More visible traces remain of the Spanish and Mexican periods and cultures: Mission San Juan Capistrano, which began the agricultural tradition in Orange County, and subsequent adobes from the great land grants and ranches that followed. Additionally, both customs and many names persist from this period, and so does some ranching. The architectural and other evidences of the subsequent pioneer period are still quite visible: farmsteads, old buildings from the new towns that were established in the late 1800s, mining operations, and traces of early resort and other types of promotional activities. For about 100 years, farming was the main economic activity with products such as grapes, walnuts, vegetables and oranges replacing the older wheat and cattle ranches. Today, agriculture still is very important. Orange County ranks high among California’s counties in mineral production with its oil, natural gas, sand and gravel, and clay mining and processing activities.

The extensive development of the 42 miles of beaches in Orange County and the development of such attractions as Disneyland, Knott’s Berry Farm, the Laguna Festival of Arts and Pageant of the Masters, the Arrowhead Pond of Anaheim, Edison International Field and Convention Center and the Orange County Performing Arts Center continue to make tourism an increasingly important activity. So does the Mediterranean-type climate, with rainfall averaging 14 inches per year, and generally mild days (either freezing or 100-degree temperatures uncommon) with frequent morning fog during the summer. Both downtown Los Angeles and the Pacific Ocean can be reached by car in half an hour, and mountain and desert recreation areas are as close as an hour’s drive from the campus.
