Fullerton is a city located in northern Orange County, California, USA. As
of the 2000 census, the city had a total population of 126,003.
It was founded in 1887 by George and Edward Amerige and named for George H.
Fullerton, who secured the land on behalf of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa
Fe Railway. Historically it was a center of agriculture, notably groves of
Valencia oranges and other citrus crops; petroleum extraction;
transportation; and manufacturing. It is home to several educational
institutions, notably the California State University, Fullerton.

Heritage
Evidence of prehistoric habitation is present in Ralph B. Clark Regional
Park in the northwest of the city. Europeans first passed through the area
in 1769 when Gaspar de Portolā led an expedition north to establish Mission
San Gabriel Arcangel, after whom the local Native American population were
dubbed the Gabrieliņos. The land later became part of Rancho San Juan Cajon
de Santa Ana, granted to Juan Pacifico Ontiveros, a Spanish soldier.
Fullerton city hallOntiveros began to sell parcels of the Rancho to settlers
flooding California in the aftermath of the 1849 Gold Rush, including
Massachusetts native Abel Stearns. In the 1860s, Stearns sold in turn to
Domingo Bastanchury, a Basque shepherd.
In 1886 while in the area on a duck hunting vacation, Malden brothers George
and Edward Amerige, heard rumors that the California Central Railroad, a
subsidiary of the Santa Fe Railway, was looking for land. Sensing
opportunity, they arranged to buy 430 acres (1.7 km˛) north of Anaheim for
approximately $68,000.
They then began negotiations with George H. Fullerton, president of the
Pacific Land and Improvement Company, also a Santa Fe subsidiary. They
offered free right-of-way and half interest in the land to the railroad if
Fullerton's survey were revised to include the proposed town site, and on
July 5, 1887 Edward Amerige formally staked his claim at what is now the
intersection of Harbor Boulevard and Commonwealth Avenue.

In 1894 Charles Chapman, a retired Chicago publisher and a descendant of
John "Johnny Appleseed" Chapman, purchased an orange orchard in eastern
Fullerton. The Valencia variety of oranges he promoted from his Santa Ysabel
Ranch, well suited to the local climate, proved a boon to producers;
Fullerton boasted more orange groves than any other municipality in the
United States. Cultivation of walnuts and avocados also flourished, and the
Western railroad town became an agricultural center.
In 1904, Fullerton incorporated.
In 1913, community college Fullerton College was established at its present
location at Chapman Avenue and Lemon Street.
In 1924 a law was created banning all overnight street parking throughout
the city. The law is still enforced to this day.
Drilling for petroleum also began in the late 1800s and fueled the first
real boom, peaking in the 1920s. Construction reflected the vogue for
Spanish Colonial and Italian Renaissance-inspired architecture, as in the
historic Fox Fullerton Theatre (erected 1925); the home of Walter and Adella
Muckenthaler, designed by Frank Benchley (erected 1924); and the city's
chief landmark, the Plummer Auditorium and clock tower (erected 1930).
Significant public works projects were constructed during this period,
including the conversion of a southwestern sewer farm into Fullerton
Municipal Airport at the behest of Placentia ranchers and aviators William
and Robert Dowling in 1927.
In 1932, Val Vita Food Products (later Hunt Wesson and today part of ConAgra
Foods, Inc.) began operating a citrus juice plant in western Fullerton. By
1941 it had become the largest food processing company in the US. 1930s-
Hawaiian Punch created in a Fullerton garage. Through the mid-1900s the
economy shifted toward manufacturing; southeastern Fullerton became an
industrial center and the city became a producer not only of canned foods,
but also of aerospace equipment, electrical and electronic components,
navigation systems, and laboratory instruments.
In 1949 Dick Riedel and Bill Barris piloted the Sunkist Lady, a modified
Aeronca Sedan, out of the Fullerton airport to set an endurance flight
record of 1,008 hours and 2 minutes.
Fullerton's population soared after World War II as veterans migrated to
California, and in particular after the construction of Interstate 5 and
development in neighboring Anaheim.
In 1957, the California State Legislature authorized Orange County State
College, which began operating out of Fullerton high schools in 1959. In
1963, it moved to its present campus on State College Boulevard and was
redesignated California State College at Fullerton. Other institutions
followed, earning Fullerton a reputation as an "Education City."
In 1965, Harold Muckenthaler donated his family home to the city for use as
a cultural center.
In 1979, the Fullerton Arboretum, a 26-acre (105,000 m˛) botanical garden,
opened in the northeastern part of the city.
Manufacturing growth leveled off as ever-soaring property prices, increasing
environmental regulation, traffic, and other pressures increased. By the
late 20th century the city had lost much of its rural character in favor of
suburban housing tracts and shopping centers.

Recent history
Fullerton Police HeadquartersThe first years of the 21st century have seen
several political issues played out against a backdrop of class division
(between the more affluent northern and western parts of the city and the
southern portion of the city, which borders Anaheim), rapidly diminishing
supplies of undeveloped land, and demographic changes (including the influx
of Asian and Latino immigrants into an area previously dominated by
Caucasians).
As in many cities, growth and development are contentious issues. In the
1990s, the downtown commercial district had become economically depressed,
and was known mainly for being an area of sleepy antique stores and small
shops. A symbol of downtown's problems was the Fox Theatre, a local
landmark, which had fallen into disrepair. As of November 2004, a
fundraising drive had accumulated sufficient funds to buy the theater, but
not yet enough money to restore it. By 2006, restoration was started. During
this same period, the downtown area, especially south of Commonwealth
Avenue, has become more of a busy entertainment district, described by the
OC Weekly as Bourbon Street West. In less than five years, some 30
businesses that sell alcohol have opened, making the downtown area much more
active at night. With the festive atmosphere have come problems such as
public drunkenness, fights and a shortage of parking; a police task force
last year has addressed some of these problems.
There is a proposal to develop the Coyote Hills area, the last undeveloped
area in the city. This controversial issue has pitted local
environmentalists and slow-growth activists (who argue that the city should
seek state funding to buy the area and make into a park) against the
pro-business and pro-growth City Council. There are also plans to build
approximately 300 condominiums or apartments downtown, leading to more
density.
The 293-acre Hughes Aircraft Company's Ground Systems Group campus in
western Fullerton was redeveloped into a major new residential and
commercial district, called Amerige Heights, in 20012004. This development
was accompanied by extreme shifts in neighborhood property values, first
dropping precipitously in the late 1980s to early 1990s as the former Hughes
employees sold their houses, and then rising rapidly as part of a general
increase in real estate values throughout Orange County.

Geography
Fullerton is located at 33°52′48″N, 117°55′43″W (33.879914, -117.928749)GR1.
It is approximately 25 miles (40 km) southeast of downtown Los Angeles, and
approximately 11 miles (18 km) north-northwest of Santa Ana, the county
seat. The city has a mean elevation of 150 feet (46 m) and lies
approximately 11 miles northeast of the Pacific Ocean straight-line
distance. It has a Mediterranean climate, with a mean temperature of 62.2
degrees Fahrenheit (16.8 °C).
According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of
57.6 km˛ (22.2 mi˛). 57.5 km˛ (22.2 mi˛) of it is land and 0.1 km˛ (0.04
mi˛) of it (0.14%) is water.
The flat downtown area is laid out in a grid plan centered at the
intersection of Harbor Boulevard and Commonwealth Avenue. After recent
renewal and beautification projects, it has attracted specialty stores,
coffee shops, and restaurants, and has uncharacteristically retained much of
its downtown character. Southeastern Fullerton is historically the
industrial sector, and is home to small manufacturing, particularly east of
Raymond Street and south of Commonwealth.
The hilly northern and western parts of Fullerton were for most of its
history groves of citrus trees, open scrubland, and oil fields. While
equestrian trails and many old estates endure along Bastanchury Road, the
meandering roads through these areas today mostly connect a succession of
housing tract subdivisions and commercial developments. North-central and
northwestern Fullerton is broadly referred to as Coyote Hills, while the
name Sunny Hills refers to the adjacent lands to the south and west. In
recent years, the Fullerton City Council has tried to develop all the
remaining open land throughout the city. The most notable impending project,
in West Coyote Hills, has been met with high opposition by many of the
citizens in the area. West Coyote Hills is in the far northwest of the city,
and borders the cities of La Mirada and La Habra.
Government and politics
Fullerton is a general law city with a council-manager government system.
Legislative authority is vested in a City Council of five non-partisan
members who serve four-year staggered terms, who elect a chair who serves as
mayor but hire a professional city manager for day-to-day operations. All
Council seats are elected at large. Elections are held every two years and
are consolidated with the statewide general elections held in November of
even numbered years.
As of July 2004 there were 60,927 registered voters in the city:
Republican Party - 29,146
Democratic Party - 19,146
Decline To State - 9,850
American Independent Party - 1,098
Libertarian Party - 507
Green Party- 480
Peace and Freedom Party - 242
Natural Law Party - 137
Miscellaneous - 321
Fullerton has historically favored conservative Republican in state and
federal elections, sending native William E. Dannemeyer to seven terms in
the United States House of Representatives.

Emergency services
Fire protection in Fullerton is provided by the Fullerton Fire Department
with ambulance transport by Care Ambulance Service. The Fullerton Police
Department provides law enforcement.
Education
California State University, Fullerton, commonly Cal State Fullerton or CSUF
was first established in 1957 as Orange County State College. The twelfth
member of the California State University system, its main campus is located
on 236 acres (1 km˛) of a former orange grove in northeast Fullerton near
California State Route 57 and Nutwood Avenue; there are six branch campuses.
In the spring quarter of 2004, 32,592 students were enrolled in 104
undergraduate and graduate degree programs. CSUF primarily serves commuter
students.
Fullerton College is a two-year community college, the oldest in continuous
operation in California. Part of the North Orange County Community College
District, it is situated on a 63 acre (255,000 m˛) campus adjacent to
Fullerton Union High School.
Other institutions of higher education in Fullerton include Western State
University College of Law, Hope International University, and Southern
California College of Optometry.
The city also prides itself on its public schools, including Fullerton Union
High School, the oldest high school in the Fullerton Joint Union High School
District as well as all of Orange County, home of historic Plummer
Auditorium and the Academy of the Arts magnet program, as well as science
magnet school Troy High School.
Culture and recreation
Fullerton is home to a vibrant music scene. It was a center for the Orange
County hardcore punk music scene, producing acts such as The Adolescents,
Agent Orange, Social Distortion, and TSOL. Gwen Stefani, lead vocalist of
the alternative rock group No Doubt, was a student at CSUF and the group
performed there regularly. Other popular groups from the area include The
Offspring and Lit.
Contributing greatly to Fullerton's musical heritage was the Fender musical
instrument company, whose products such as the Stratocaster and Telecaster
electric guitars, Precision Bass bass guitar, and Twin Reverb guitar
amplifier revolutionized the music business and contributed greatly to the
development of rock and roll. (A list of notable rock performers who did not
use a Fender product at some point in their careers would be very short.)
Leo Fender sold the company to CBS in 1964; production continued in the
Fullerton plant until 1985, when the then-ruined company was sold to a group
of private investors. (It was later reconstituted as Fender Musical
Instrument Corporation, with its major production facilities in neighboring
Corona and across the US-Mexico border in Ensenada, Baja California, and its
headquarters in Scottsdale, Arizona.) In 1980, Leo Fender and his original
partner George Fullerton (relation to the Fullerton founder of the same name
unknown) reunited and started a new company, G&L (George and Leo) Guitars,
which currently occupies the old Fender factory in Fullerton.
The Muckenthaler Cultural Center on Malvern Avenue near Euclid Avenue houses
a museum, art galleries, two symphony orchestras, and a theater group.
The Fullerton Museum Center is a multidisciplinary exhibit space housed in
the old Carnegie Library downtown.
Fullerton is also home to the Fullerton Public Library. The Main Library is
located on Commonwealth Avenue in Downtown Fullerton and adjacent to the
City Hall and Police Station. There is also a branch library, called the
Hunt Branch on Basque Avenue.
Fullerton is also home to a diverse and ever-growing theatre scene. The
Fullerton Civic Light Opera, one of the largest theatre companies in
Southern California, is based at the Plummer Auditorium. Local educational
institutions, such as Fullerton College and Fullerton High School's Academy
of the Arts, are the source of numerous large-scale productions.
Fullerton maintains 45 city parks and is home to the Craig Regional Park and
Ralph B. Clark Regional Park. The Fullerton Arboretum comprises 26 acres
(105,000 m˛) of sculpted gardens and unusual plants in northeastern
Fullerton. Additionally the city features approximately 200 acres (0.8 km˛)
of recreational land in the Brea Dam Recreational Area, plus an equestrian
center and trails, two golf courses, and the Janet Evans Swim Complex.
The city is also one one of the few Southern California municapalities to be
served by a completely independent newspaper, the Fullerton Observer
www.fullertonobserver.com. The Observer is an all-volunteer paper that is
printed two to three times a month. It prides itself on its progressive
nature and was founded in the late 1970s by Ralph Kennedy, a fair housing
and civil rights activist who advocated saving Coyote Hills as open space.

Transportation
Fullerton owes its existence to the railroad[citation needed]. The city is
still bisected by the BNSF Railway, upon whose tracks run Amtrak trains 3
and 4, the Southwest Chief, between Chicago and Los Angeles, the Pacific
Surfliner to Los Angeles, Santa Barbara, and San Diego and Metrolink
commuter rail trains. Average trip time on Metrolink or Amtrak to Los

County Transportation Authority (OCTA).
Fullerton is crossed by three major freeways. California State Route 91, the
Riverside Freeway, runs east-to-west down the length of the city south of
Orangethorpe Avenue. It intersects with Interstate 5, the Santa Ana Freeway,
in the west near Magnolia Avenue and with California State Route 57, the
Orange Freeway, in the east near State College Boulevard.
Fullerton Municipal Airport, the only general aviation airport remaining in
Orange County, located in the southwest of the city, is the last remnant of
the Hughes Company in the area, which was prominent in the aerospace
industry up until the 1970s.
