City of Atascadero

Mission:

The City of Atascadero is committed to building community by fostering an outstanding quality of life with excellent public service, stewardship of the environment, preservation of our heritage and promotion of economic prosperity.

About Us:

Atascadero is located in the heart of the Central Coast, offering a blend of natural beauty and rural lifestyle. Its comfortable climate and atmosphere are influenced by the beautiful Pacific Ocean on the West and also by the Salinas River and open countryside to the East. Local scenery includes oak-studded hills, creeks and scenic vistas of the Santa Lucia Mountains.

Our family orientated, mid-size community has a small-town feel yet is buzzing with new business and a resurging downtown and economy. The Charles Paddock Zoo, Lake Park, Chalk Mountain Golf Course and other parks and shopping centers are great places to visit. It is the perfect halfway stop not only between Los Angeles and San Francisco, but between the well-established wine tasting communities of Paso Robles and the Edna Valley.
