Welcome to the The City of Calabasas, the gateway to the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area in northern Los Angeles County  and within a close commute to all areas of Los Angeles

Indians, explorers, and bandits are all part of Calabasas 's   history. The Chumash Indians led a peaceful life  the midst  of the rolling hills, making their homes in canyons where streams and springs ensured a plentiful supply of wildlife. Settlements of Chumash Indians named the area of Calabasas .  The word perhaps descended from the Indian word for "where the wild geese fly." Others think Calabasas comes from the Spanish word for pumpkin.

What is now the Sagebrush Cantina , a popular hang out for live entertainment and out door dining , was originally a group of small stores built  in the 1920's. The parking lot once was the local jail. Outside was the famous hanging tree, dead, but still standing today. It is the identifying logo of the Calabasas Chamber of Commerce.

Today Calabasas is a af f luent thriving city and residential community on the far eastern portion of the San Fernando Valley over the hills to Malibu Canyon along the both sides of the Ventura freeway.   It is the center of the thriving 101 business corridor, which is home to many high tech electronics manufacturer's such as Alcatel, Ixia, Strix, Future Electronics and Spirent.
