Fillmore is a small town in Ventura County in California. It is primarily an agricultural area, although it does have a historic downtown that dates back to the late 1800s when the Southern Pacific railroad built a line through the town.
Understand
[edit]Fillmore, with a population of some 16,000, sits at the foot of Topatopa Mountains in the Santa Clara River Valley. It was founded in 1887 upon the arrival of the Southern Pacific Rail line and the city voted to incorporate in 1914. Much of the historic center, which had been used in numerous Hollywood films, was rebuilt after the 1994 Northridge earthquake.
Fillmore is within a historic agricultural and tree-farming belt and is famous for its many orange groves.
