The city of arts and flowers

Known as “the city of arts and flowers” East Lompoc is filled with bright blooms and colorful murals in a prime location that offers city-style amenities in reach of sprawling natural spaces. “We’re right on the ocean and it’s a small town but it has everything you could need,” says Amy Guzowski, a library assistant at Lompoc Public Library. “As you’re driving to the beach, there’s the smell of fresh flowers. But it isn’t a beachy boardwalk sort of area. It’s more like protected land with dunes we can only visit 6 months out of the year because of the endangered migrating birds in the area.”
