T nHE Pomona Area, an arbitrary district chosen as the subject for this paper, comprises about twenty square miles in the extreme eastern part of Los Angeles County. Boundaries were established to include all the city of Pomona (population 20,804) and reasonable samples of each major type of rural land utilization found in the surrounding country-side (Figure 1). Nearly 80 per cent of the Pomona Area is on the middle slope of the smooth, gently sloping piedmont alluvial plain bordering the San Gabriel Mountains, but rocky hills dominate the northwest and the southwest corners (Figure 2).
