General Information about Santa Clarita
Santa Clarita is the fourth largest city in Los Angeles County, California, United States. As of the 2007 California Department of Finance estimate, the city population was 177,158. Including unicorporated areas of the Santa Clarita Valley, the population is estimated at over 200,000. It is located about 35miles (56km) northwest of downtown Los Angeles, and occupies most of the Santa Clarita Valley. It is a notable example of a U.S. edge city or boomburb. The FBI rates it as the sixth safest city in the United States with at least 100,000 inhabitants. (Nearby Simi Valley and Thousand Oaks, in Ventura County, traditionally alternate between the first and second spots on the list.) Santa Clarita is ranked as one of the top 100 places to live by Money.
Santa Clarita was incorporated in 1987 as the union of several previously existing communities, including Canyon Country, Newhall, Saugus, Stevenson Ranch, Valencia, and portions of Castaic, all of which are the land of the former Rancho San Francisco. Its principal boundaries are the Golden State (I-5) and Antelope Valley (Cal-14) freeways; their merger in Newhall Pass at the city's southernmost point gives Santa Clarita its distinctive triangular appearance on the map.
