Upland, California

Upland is a city located in San Bernardino County, California. As of the 2000 census, the city had a total population of 68,393. It was incorporated on May 15, 1906, after previously being named North Ontario.

Upland was originally an irrigation colony established by George and William Chaffey. When founded, Upland was a small rural town based on agriculture, specifically citrus fruits and grapes. Present day Upland maintains many of the same features, most specifically Euclid Avenue, the North-South, tree-lined street that runs through town, as well as many of the older, adobe and ranch-style houses. Other highlights of Upland include Upland High School (featured on 60 Minutes in the mid-1980s as an example of suburban high schools with terrible drug problems), Old Baldy Brewery in downtown Upland, a brewery in the tradition of old craft-brewed ales, and a clear view of Mount Baldy.
