Where Is That?

One thing I realized when I started working here is that Southern California is a very big place with many different markets.

Most people might not know the difference between Chino and Commerce simply because they do not know where these areas are.

So I created a game that highlights the industrial markets here in Southern California. The object is to put the pointer as close to the industrial submarket as possible. See if you can tell the difference between Ontario and Anaheim, between Vernon and Perris. You might be surprised that some of these areas are not where you think they are.

Also for kicks, see if you can find the Ports of Los Angeles / Long Beach. Some regions might be closer to the ports than you think.

For some areas, you may have to drag the map to find them. Unfortunately, most of these areas are in the Inland Empire and the dragging might give you the false impression that they are farther away than they actually are.

So far, most people think that cities in the Inland Empire are further east than where they actually are and most people still have no clue where Vernon is.

If you have ever gotten lost near downtown Los Angeles and ended up in a scary warehouse district you should know exactly where Vernon is.
