Moorpark, Residential city in Ventura County, California.
Moorpark extends across 12.44 square miles of land in Southern California, positioned 50 miles northwest from downtown Los Angeles at 157 meters elevation.
The land was granted to Robert W. Poindexter in 1887, who designed the street layout and planted pepper trees throughout the downtown district.
The Moorpark College Exotic Animal Training and Management program educates students in wildlife care while maintaining Ventura County's single public observatory.
The Metrolink station connects residents to Los Angeles Union Station and Oxnard with regular service on weekdays from early morning to late evening.
The city earned recognition when it became one of the first municipalities to utilize commercial nuclear power for street lighting in 1955.
