About Thousand Oaks

Not far from the city of Los Angeles, Thousand Oaks is a beautiful community in Southern California that has a lot to offer both residents and tourists. Named for the plentiful oak trees that grow in this region, Thousand Oaks is a very desirable place to live for a number of reasons, one of them being that the crime rate is so low. With a high quality of life and access to many local amenities, Thousand Oaks is much more than just a city outside of Los Angeles.

A city created based on a master plan, Thousand Oaks is primarily residential, with well-planned neighborhoods, parks, and shopping centers. Families that live in Thousand Oaks love its location because they aren’t far from the big city of Los Angeles, only a little over thirty miles, which is perfect for commuters who live in Thousand Oaks and commute to L.A. every day. Living in a smaller city with a low crime rate and access to beautiful local parks is very attractive to most families that live in Southern California.

Like much of the surrounding area within Southern California, long before European explorers came to the area that is now Thousand Oaks, the Chumash Native American tribe thrived on this land. In the mid 1500s, the land that is now Thousand Oaks was taken by Spain, and they used much of this area as grazing land for their horses and cattle, along with other livestock. Thousand Oaks and the surrounding area is still home to many farms and agricultural properties to this day.

Much like its neighbor city Simi Valley, Thousand Oaks is known for being a very conservative city within Southern California. With a significant amount of the registered voters claiming to be Republican, Thousand Oaks stands out among the mostly liberal state of California. These are statistics reflected in the early 2000s in California.

When it comes to education, Thousand Oaks is home to a number of public elementary schools, public middle schools, and public high schools within the Conejo Valley Unified School District. Several private schools and charter schools are also located within Thousand Oaks, providing local parents with plenty of choices when it comes to choosing the right institution of education for their children. For any students that may require extra help with their studies, local Thousand Oaks tutors are available. These tutors meet one-on-one with each student, helping them reach their own educational goals, one lesson at a time.
