 Sweeper Parts Oxnard - Oxnard is the biggest city within Ventura County. It was incorporated in 1903 and runs along the pacific coastline, just 35 miles south of Santa Barbara and 60 miles northwest of Los Angeles.
The really fertile soil in the area is among the most desirable things about Oxnard. The fertile soil together with the temperate weather gives a long harvest season, making the area of Oxnard really agriculturally rich. Farmers could often get double, even triple, the amount of crops harvested on the same piece of land each and every year.
The economy of Oxnard was originally and almost exclusively based on oil and agriculture. These days, the economy has grown along with the city. It all began by farming sugar beets/beans and cattle grazing. Intensive farming followed shortly after. A strange twist was the shift from intensive farming to working in the defence industry. Today, the city is concentrating on developing industrial, housing and commercial opportunities. Oxnard prides itself on keeping an even balance between honouring their agricultural background but still progressing further into the areas of business and technology.
Oxnard has gone through a population boom in the past fifty years. Even if this has provided difficulties to the government, it has likewise been a blessing because it has created exceptional opportunities for young entrepreneurs to start up businesses.
Within the city, the top companies are in biotechnology, packaging and duplicating videocassettes, health insurance, mortgage lending, education, and telephone services and equipment. The local, state and federal governments hire a large percentage of the residents. Because of its ideal location near Highway 101, the city is attracting a lot of high-technology businesses. The Port of Hueneme, that sends, loads and unloads fruit and cars overseas, is very essential to the financial system. Point Mugu and Port Hueneme are likewise home to a large portion of the United States Navy.
