City Guide for Lompoc, CA

The Bowling Alley scene from the movie Sideways was filmed in Lompoc. Haven't seen it? No better place to than in Lompoc itself!

Lompoc, California is a charming community nestled along the famous coast road Highway 1 and next to Vandenberg Air Force Base. It's in Santa Barbara County, about equidistant from Santa Maria and Santa Barbara in the coastal hills that typify the region. The city takes its name from the Chumash Indian words meaning "stagnant water." Another translation is lagoon, and that sounds much better, so let's go with that one. A sign on the way into town terms it a "City of Arts and Flowers," formerly the premier flower seed growing region in the world, the area is seeing a resurgence and may regain that title soon. That makes for a very colorful agricultural countryside in bloom season! It was originally meant to be a temperance colony, but fear not, drink aficionados, those days are long past. With Vandenberg AFB close, military personnel naturally make up a good portion of the local workforce and contribute heavily to the local economy. In addition, the Federal Corrections Institution is a major employer. It's a minimum security "Club Fed" facility, mostly filled with people who are probably quite happy to not be somewhere more notorious. The city grew rapidly starting in the late 50s when it was announced that the base would be a test site for intercontinental missiles and the population "exploded." Since then, Vandenberg and the city have been inexorably linked. The area also saw boom times when shuttle missions were taking off from the base but experienced a recession after that program ended.

What to keep in mind when looking for dog friendly apartments in Lompoc, CA

Finding an apartment in Lompoc that accepts your pet may not be easy, but it’s very possible. Keep in mind, most of the time you’ll have to pay a premium for bringing your dog along in your new apartment. Some apartments require you to pay monthly pet rent, others will ask for a non-refundable pet fee or a refundable pet deposit.

While landlords and property management companies have varying pet policies, most of them limit the number of dogs you can bring to your apartment and include breed and weight restrictions.

If your pet falls under some of the restrictions outlined in the pet policy, it’s still worth asking the landlord if they can make an exception for your dog. Preparing a pet resume ahead of time could help you build the case for your furry friend. Make sure to include information on behavioral training your dog went through over the years and proof of vaccinations. If you can, include references from your former landlord and/or neighbors.
