About Vernon

Vernon is an industrial city of about 200 residents just south of downtown Los Angeles, incorporated in 1905 (per Wikipedia, read September 24, 2026). Almost entirely made up of warehouses, factories, and food-processing plants, it famously operates as a "company town" with one of the lowest residential populations of any US city — nearly all of its 5 square miles are industrial.
