About Camarillo

Camarillo sits on the Oxnard Plain between the Conejo Grade and the strawberry fields: an outlet mall on the 101, a walkable Old Town on Ventura Boulevard, the 1892 Camarillo Ranch House, and an airport that was once Oxnard Air Force Base. It's also where this project started.

Getting there: Metrolink and Amtrak's Pacific Surfliner stop at the Camarillo station on Lewis Road, at the east end of Old Town. Old Town's shops and restaurants line Ventura Boulevard between Lewis Road and Carmen Drive.
