About Porter Ranch
Porter Ranch is a neighborhood in Los Angeles, California, in
the northwestern portions of the San Fernando Valley. It is bounded
by Chatsworth on the southwest, Northridge on the south, Granada
Hills on the southeast, and the Santa Susana Mountains on all
other sides. The principal thoroughfares are Tampa Avenue and
Reseda Boulevard, running north-south. It is served by the Ronald
Reagan Freeway. In the late 19th century, Benjamin Porter purchased
a large tract in the foothills of the Santa Susanas above Northridge.
Primarily wheat fields for its first several decades, the relatively
isolated area later became the site of numerous movie stars' horse
ranches. As with the rest of the San Fernando Valley, suburban
development eventually came to Porter Ranch. However, the area
was the last portion of the San Fernando Valley within the Los
Angeles city limits to be developed, with major construction not
occurring until the 1980s. Today, the district is largely composed
of gated communities of upscale single-family homes. Most residents
commute by automobile to the high-tech industries of Chatsworth,
Simi Valley, Downtown Los Angeles and the commercial hub of Woodland
Hills, at the San Fernando Valley's southwest corner. http://lacounty.info/
