Chapter 1: Regions and Themes




Growing up in the San Fernando Valley my whole life, I find this area to be my home. Later on in the Chapters, I will travel you through my favorite and most important parts of the San Fernando Valley.


"The San Fernando Valley (locally known as "The Valley") is an urbanized valley located in the Los Angeles metropolitan area of southern California, United States, defined by the mountains of the Transverse Ranges circling it. Home to 1.76 million people, it lies north of the larger and more populous Los Angeles Basin. Nearly two thirds of the Valley's land area is part of the city of Los Angeles. The other incorporated cities in the valley are Burbank, Glendale, San Fernando, Hidden Hills and Calabasas." (Wikipedia, 2012)
