Humboldt
County is a place of rare beauty and natural
wealth. Our temperate climate, rugged
mountains, and plentiful rivers and beaches
rank Humboldt’s natural amenities
above any other county in the United States
(USDA Economic Research Service).
Counties ranking high in natural amenities
typically doubled their population in
the past 25 years. As population pressures
continue to build throughout the State,
the risk of Humboldt County being overwhelmed
by sudden growth becomes very real. The
type of growth we plan for will determine
the type of growth we experience. |
