Fontana

Tucked on the inland plain below the San Gabriel Mountains, Fontana is a city whose character is shaped by Southern California’s dry, warm Inland Empire climate. Once an agricultural community associated with citrus groves, it changed rapidly during the Second World War when Henry J. Kaiser established the Fontana steel mill, bringing industrial jobs and new residents. Today, Fontana is among San Bernardino County’s larger cities, with residential neighbourhoods, logistics businesses and major transport connections across the Los Angeles basin. Its history reflects the broader transformation of inland Southern California from farmland into a major metropolitan region.
