Central Coast

The Central Coast region extends from southern San Mateo County down to Santa Barbara in the south and includes redwood forests, foggy coastal terraces, chapparal-covered hills, green valley floors, and semi-arid grasslands. Agriculture and viticulture thrive here with the temperate climate, rich soils, and moderate rainfall, and is central to the economy of this region. The Central Coast region is the most groundwater-dependent region in the state with groundwater being used to meet approximately 80% of agricultural, municipal, and domestic water demands.
