Home to Cal State Channel Islands and close to several other universities and community colleges, the city’s talent pool is abundant and exceptionally educated with 42% of all adults possessing at least a bachelor’s degree.

Access to Camarillo is facilitated via the US Highway 101, midway between Los Angeles and Santa Barbara. Individuals, businesses, and families enjoy convenient access to the resources and opportunities of a big city, while at home they’ll find breathing room and a less frenetic pace. Speaking of access, Camarillo has its own municipal airport and the nearest seaport (the Port of Hueneme) and rail yard (Union Pacific’s South Yard) are within fifteen miles.

The climate here is “Mediterranean”; think California weather at its finest. Residents enjoy mild winters and summers with average temperatures in the low 70s and sunshine 300 days out of the year. The city is fifteen miles from the shoreline, enclosed between gorgeous mountain views to its north (Santa Susana Mountains) and south (Santa Monica Mountains). From the hillsides, you can take in serene and tranquil views of the Channel Islands.

For fun and healthy family life, it’s hard to top Camarillo. The schools are top-notch. The parks are plentiful, generously apportioned, and superbly maintained. Camarillo is consistently ranked in the top 20 list of the Safest Cities in California. The love and care that goes into this city is palpable, right down to the ornately designed shipwrecked-themed children’s section at the Camarillo Public Library, one of the most well-funded library systems in the county.
