The Great Plains


The Oxnard plain is located southwest of Ventura. The plains are surrounded by the Santa Monica Mountains, the Santa Susana Mountains and the Oak ridge.  To the east the plains have the Topatopa Mountains and to the north the Santa Clara River. The plains are home to the western part of the Oxnard/Thousand Oaks area like Ventura, Camarillo, Port Hueneme, Santa Paula, El Rio, Saticoy and Somis. The plains have two large oil fields the Oxnard Oil Field and the Montalvo Oil Field.
