Anon worked in Santa Clarita for three years. The municipality is LA adjacent, and massive real estate development we on there funded by the no check mortgages that precipitated the 2007 Obongo financial collapse.
Aside from McMansions and trailer parks, SC has a few old time movie lots. "Deadwood" was shot their at the "singing cowboy" Gene Autry's "Melody Ranch." http://www.melodyranchstudio.com/
Famous movie cowboy Tom Mix had a ranch out there.
Mix made 291 movies throughout his career. As of 2007, only about 10% of these were known to be available for viewing, though it was unclear[to whom?] how many are now considered lost films
