Placentia

Placentia - Latin for "a pleasant place" - has retained the small town image that has remained since settlers arrived more than 100 years ago.

Placentia is located in Orange County. The population estimate for July 1, 1998 was 47,153, an increase of 5,894 since 1990.

Placentia was incorporated in 1926. The area is well suited for growing citrus, walnuts, avocados, and grapes. Placentia became the center of Valencia orange growing and packing.

Accommodations in Placentia include the Fairfield Inn By Marriott, a Holiday Inn and the Residence Inn By Marriott. There is also a Placentia, Newfoundland.

Placentia is part of the Orange County, California metro area.
