| Santa Barbara County, California |
Santa Barbara County is a county located on the Pacific coast of the southern portion of
the U.S. state of California, just west of Ventura County. As of 2000 the county had a
population of 399,347. The estimated total population of Santa Barbara County as of
January 2006 is 421,625, according to The California Department of Finance. The county
seat is Santa Barbara.
For thousands of years, the area was home to the Chumash tribe of Native Americans.
The Santa Barbara Channel received its name from Spanish explorer Sebastian Vizcaino
when he sailed over the channel waters in 1602; he entered the channel on December 4,
the day of the feast of Santa Barbara. He was not, however, the first European to enter
the channel: that honor went to the Portuguese explorer Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo who
arrived in 1542.
Mission Santa Barbara was founded on December 4, 1786 in what is now Santa Barbara.
The county derives its name from the mission.
Santa Barbara County was one of the 26 original counties of California, formed in 1850 at
the time of statehood. Parts of the county's territory were given to Ventura County in
1872.
