About location

Los Gatos has served as a milling and agricultural settlement in California’s Santa Clara Valley since the 1850s. Set against the foothills of the Santa Cruz Mountains, the town follows Los Gatos Creek, a watercourse that helped power its early mills. Forbes Mill, built in 1854, survives as the Los Gatos History Museum and recalls the period when orchards and flour milling shaped the local economy. Today, the compact downtown around Santa Cruz Avenue combines preserved late-19th- and early-20th-century commercial buildings with independent shops and restaurants. Trails along the creek and nearby mountain routes connect the settled core with the wider South Bay.

The state includes both Mount Whitney, the highest point in the contiguous United States, and extensive protected lands such as Yosemite National Park. California’s cities have exerted worldwide influence through film, technology, agriculture, and music; Hollywood remains an enduring symbol of the American screen industry. Its scale means climates and local character can change dramatically from one county to the next. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of California.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
