Guadalupe, California. The current City of Guadalupe was founded in 1843. Guadalupe was one of the first communities on the Central Coast. At the time of its founding, it was known as Rancho de Guadalupe. The land, similar to many other established California cities, was first obtained as a part of a Mexican land grant. The area developed economically through cattle ranching, the dairy industry and eventually, vegetable farming.

Guadalupe is a small community situated approximately ten miles from Santa Maria in Santa Barbara County. The city has been around for some time and is surrounded by large vegetable fields. Many of the city buildings were constructed around the turn of the century. The city has a current population of 5,700 which is 84% Hispanic, many of whom speak only Spanish.

Guadalupe is an agriculturally diverse town that has a little bit of everything. The town is heavily influenced by the Native Americans that founded the town, some of whose ancestors still live there today, the Spanish speaking population that works hard to maintain the city's growth, and the newer Anglo families that show pride in their homes and neighborhoods.
