Nipomo

Nipomo is in San Luis Obispo County, and is situated on a mesa graced by tall stands of eucalyptus trees. The mesa extends out to the ocean, and inland across agricultural lands to low hills. The town of Nipomo has a commercial section, a library with an outstanding new facility, and is the corporate center for the Community Health Care Centers of the Central Coast with clinic sites in remote rural and urban areas in San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara Counties.

Nipomo is a community with divided cultural and economic differences. A large part of the population are Spanish speaking immigrants who provide agricultural labor, another sector are the wealthy ranch and land owners, another sector are affluent retirees who have moved into a new retirement community, and there is also a large sector that are American working class families who are employed in the community and in the larger cities to the north and south of Nipomo.
