Pomona: Cal Poly, the LA County Fair, and the Eastern San Gabriel Valley
Pomona sits in the eastern San Gabriel Valley of Los Angeles County, about 30 miles east of downtown LA. The city takes its name from the Roman goddess of fruit, fitting for an 1880s settlement built around citrus packing and vineyards. Pomona was incorporated in 1888, and the Southern Pacific Railroad connections it hosted made the city a regional shipping hub for California's early fruit industry.
The Fairplex hosts the Los Angeles County Fair every September and October, a tradition since 1922. Peak attendance has exceeded 1.4 million across the fair's run. The same 487-acre complex also hosts the NHRA Winternationals, a premier drag racing event held each February at the Pomona Dragstrip (the In-N-Out Burger Pomona Dragstrip under current naming rights). Trade shows, concerts, and the Antique and Collectible Show fill the facility throughout the year.
California State Polytechnic University, Pomona occupies a 1,438-acre campus on the city's north edge. Cal Poly Pomona is one of two polytechnic universities in the Cal State system, alongside Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. The campus includes the American Kennel Club-registered Kellogg Arabian horse ranch, originally established by cereal magnate W.K. Kellogg before he donated the land to the state. Downtown Pomona, long in decline, has seen arts-driven revitalization along Second Street, with galleries, restaurants, and the monthly Second Saturday art walk drawing visitors.
The Gold Line light rail extension, when fully operational, will connect Pomona to Pasadena and downtown LA. Metrolink already serves the city through two stations. Interstate 10 and State Route 71 intersect nearby, linking Pomona to the Inland Empire and the LA basin.
