The traditional territories of Native Americans living in Los Angeles and Ventura Counties were comprised of at least six Tribes: the Chumash, Fernandeño, Tataviam, Kitanemuk, Gabrieleno, and Serrano.  In the Thousand Oaks area it was the Chumash tribe that lived in the region for hundreds of years before the Spaniard explorers moved into the area in 1542.  The Spaniards called the area Conejo Valley which translated to “Rabbit Valley.”

Thousand Oaks’ name was voted on by its residents in 1964, when the city was incorporated. It was named after the approximate 50,000 to 60,000 oak trees in the area.  In fact, the city has 150 miles designated as open space for the public’s use.
