CaliforniaCity.Com was established in 1997. It is dedicated to the
members of the community, past, present, and future. We strive to
publish the things that are important or what matters to the people of
California City. The web pages are kept current, daily. We hope to
continue to expand the site to be a resource for the residents and a
portal for those interested in our town. Since
1997, the site has been proudly maintained by volunteers and, supported by
donations from local business people and residents. Also, a number of City officials
have given their support in many ways. We continue to look for
contributors, so if you would like to help, please contact the editor. Enjoy!
Since, December 2005, the web site has progressed into a great center of information. It is used by local businesses and residents, as well as other people around the globe, for up to date information on our city. For more information, see the US Census Bureau website. We have added several more pages to the site and have archived others. Weather and Police radio have been inserted to the Home and Daily Police Log pages with interactive audio controls and quicker loading times. New ideas are in the works and we welcome suggestions from everyone who visits. We would like everyone to grow with us! Thank you very much for all the great compliments.
