Monterey County is not northern Californis.
If Calif. is split in just two, Monterrey is Northern Calif.
“Monterey County is not northern California.”
I beg to differ! It is only 60 miles south of San Jose! On the Pacific Coast, the demarkation between the north and south is the tunnel through the coastal hills south of Solvang. San Luis Obispo is considered the Central Coast. SLO is nearly 100 miles south of Monterey.
Where is Monterey then?
