Santa Margarita is a rural town, pop. ~ 1300, located in the northern interior (Salinas
Valley) region of San Luis Obispo County, California. Situated along the central coast of
California, the area features a Mediterranean climate. The town was laid out in 1889 on
land that was part of the Santa Margarita Ranch. Though the years have brought many
changes to the area, Santa Margarita retains its rural character. The community is
surrounded by oak woodlands of the 13,800 acre Santa Margarita Ranch.
