Pomona

Pomona has served as an agricultural and commercial centre in Southern California since the late 19th century. Set in the Pomona Valley, the city lies south of the San Gabriel Mountains and east of Los Angeles, in an inland basin shaped by citrus-growing and suburban growth. Its name recalls the Roman goddess of fruit, an apt link to the orchards that once dominated this part of the valley. Fairplex Pomona is the longtime home of the Los Angeles County Fair, while downtown supports the Pomona Arts Colony with galleries, studios and an Art Walk. Cal Poly Pomona adds a major educational presence. See how Pomona fits within Southern California by browsing webcams in the surrounding area.
