Thousand Oaks

Thousand Oaks, located in the Conejo Valley, halfway between Santa Barbara and LA, provides its 130,000 residents with exciting and diverse opportunities for work, play, and education. Some of its largest employers include Amgen Biotechnology, Anthem Blue Cross, California Lutheran University and Sage Publications. Its Civic Arts Plaza theaters attracts top entertainers, and Wildwood Regional Park opens the door to unparalleled exploration of the outdoors as well as Chumash history. According to Niche.com, public education is stellar with schools rated #9 in the nation, and the FBI has consistently ranked it one of the safest U.S. cities with a population over 100,000. While the community has been called “the next Silicon Valley,” it could also easily be called one of the most family-friendly places in California.
