It is located on California's Pacific coast, and forms the northwestern part of the Greater Los Angeles Area. It is often referred to as the Gold Coast, and has a reputation of being one of the safest populated places in the country. The county seat is the city of Ventura (formally known as San Buenaventura). Ventura County's largest city is Oxnard, with a population of about 200,000. Prior to the arrival of Europeans in California, the area was home to the Chumash tribe of Native Americans. (www.en.wikipedia.org)   County Seat: Ventura Year Organized: 1873 Square Miles: 1,846
