From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Inland Empire is a metropolitan area and region in Southern California , inland of and adjacent to Los Angeles . The combined land area of the Inland Empire is larger than ten U.S. states – West Virginia , Maryland , Hawaii , Massachusetts , Vermont , New Hampshire , New Jersey , Connecticut , Delaware and Rhode Island .
The Inland Empire also has
Santa Ana Winds that lead to clear days, free of smog. The street which "faded" into the smoggy haze is clear, and the
Santa Ana Mountains are clearly visible.
At the end of the nineteenth century, the Inland Empire was a major center of agriculture , including citrus , dairy , and winemaking . Agriculture declined in the twentieth century. Since the 1970s a rapidly growing population came in search of affordable housing. This led to more residential, industrial, and commercial development. The area has a population of about four million.[1]
