Marin
County
is a county located in the North San Francisco Bay Area of the
U.S. state of California, across the Golden Gate Bridge from
San Francisco. As of 2007, the population was 248,096. The county
seat is San Rafael and the largest employer is the county government.
Marin County is renowned for its natural beauty, liberal politics,
affluence and a strong New Age reputation. According to the
Bureau of Economic Analysis, Marin County has the 5th highest
per capita income in the United States at $91,483. It is governed
by local cities and the Marin County Board of Supervisors.
San Quentin
Prison is located in the county, as is Skywalker Ranch. Autodesk,
the publisher of AutoCAD, is located there, as are numerous
other high-tech companies. The headquarters of film and media
company Lucasfilm Ltd., previously based in San Rafael, have
moved to the Presidio of San Francisco. United States Senator
Barbara Boxer is from Marin.
The Marin
County Civic Center was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright and draws
thousands of visitors a year to guided tours of its arch and
atrium design.
America's
oldest cross country running event, the Dipsea Race, takes place
annually in Marin County, attracting thousands of athletes.
Mountain biking is said to have been invented on the slopes
of Mount Tamalpais in Marin.
Marin County's
natural sites include Muir Woods redwood forest, the Marin Headlands,
Stinson Beach, Point Reyes National Seashore, and Mount Tamalpais.
History
Marin County
is one of the original 27 counties of California, created February
18, 1850, following adoption of the Constitution of 1849 and
just months before the state was admitted to the Union.
The origin
of the county's name is not clear. One version is the county
was named after Chief Marin, of the Coast Miwok, Licatiut tribe
of Native Americans who inhabited that section and waged fierce
battle against the early Spanish military explorers. The other
version is that the bay between San Pedro Point and San Quentin
Point was named Bahía de Nuestra Señora del Rosario la Marinera
in 1775, and it is quite possible that Marin is simply an abbreviation
of this name.
The Coast
Miwok Indians were hunters and gatherers whose ancestors had
occupied the area for thousands of years. About 600 village
sites have been identified in the county. The Coast Miwok numbered
in the thousands. Today there are few left, and even fewer with
any knowledge of their Coast Miwok lineage. Efforts are being
made so that they are not forgotten.
The English
explorer and privateer, Sir Francis Drake and the crew of the
Golden Hind was thought to have landed on the Marin coast
in 1579 claiming the land as Nova Albion. A bronze plaque
inscribed with Drake's claim to the new lands, fitting the description
in Drake's own account, was discovered in 1933. This so-called
Drake's Plate of Brass was later declared a hoax.
In 1595
Sebastian Cermeno lost his ship, the San Agustin, while
exploring the Marin Coast. The Spanish explorer Vizcaíno landed
about twenty years after Drake in what is now called Drake's
Bay. However the first Spanish settlement in Marin was not established
until 1817 when Mission San Rafael Arcángel was founded partly
in response to the Russian-built Fort Ross to the north in what
is now Sonoma County.
Mission
San Rafael Arcángel was founded in what is now downtown San
Rafael as the 20th Spanish mission in the colonial Mexican province
of Alta California by four priests, Father Narciso Duran
from Mission San Jose, Father Abella from Mission San Francisco
de Asís, Father Gil y Taboada and Father Mariano Payeras, the
President of the Missions, on December 14, 1817, four years
before Mexico gained independence from Spain.
Geography
According
to the U.S. Census Bureau, the county has a total area of 828 square
miles (2,145 km²), of which, 520 square miles (1,346 km²)
of it is land and 308 square miles (799 km²) of it
(37.24%) is water. According to the records at the County Assessor-Recorder's
Office, as of June 2006, Marin had 91,065 acres (369 km2)
of taxable land, consisting of 79,086 parcels with a total tax
basis of $39.8 billion. These parcels are divided into the following

The view
of the Golden Gate Bridge from the Marin Headlands.
Geographically,
the county forms a large, southward-facing peninsula, with the
Pacific Ocean to the west, San Pablo Bay and San Francisco Bay
to the east, and – across the Golden Gate – the city of San
Francisco to the south. Marin County's northern border is with
Sonoma County.
Most of
the county's population resides on the eastern side, with a
string of communities running along San Francisco Bay, from
Sausalito to Tiburon to Corte Madera to San Rafael. The interior
contains large areas of agricultural and open space; West Marin,
through which State Route 1 runs alongside the California coast,
contains many small unincorporated communities whose economies
depend on agriculture and tourism.
Notable
features of the shoreline along the San Francisco Bay include
the Sausalito shoreline, Richardson Bay, the Tiburon Peninsula
including Ring Mountain and Triangle Marsh at Corte Madera.
Further north lies San Quentin State Prison along the San Rafael
shoreline.

Ecology
Marin county
is considered in the California Floristic Province, a zone of
extremely high biodiversity and endemicism. There are numerous
ecosystems present, including coastal strand, oak woodland,
chaparral and riparian zones. There are also a considerable
number of protected plant and animal species present: fauna
include the California Red-legged Frog (Rana aurora draytonii)
and California freshwater shrimp, while flora include Marin
Dwarf Flax, Hesperolinon congestum; Tiburon Jewelflower,
Streptanthus niger; and Tiburon Indian paintbrush, Castilleja
neglecta.
A number
of watersheds exist in Marin County including Walker Creek,
Lagunitas Creek, Miller Creek, and Novato Creek.
The Lagunitas
Creek Watershed is home to the largest-remaining wild run
of coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) in Central California.
These coho are part of the "Central California Coast Evolutionarily
Significant Unit," or CCC ESU, and are listed as "endangered"
at both the state and federal level.
Significant
efforts to protect and restore these fish have been underway
in the Watershed since the 1980s. Fifty-percent of historical
salmon habitat is now behind dams. Strong efforts are also being
made to protect and restore undammed, headwater reaches of this
Watershed in the San Geronimo Valley, where upwards of 40% of
the Lagunitas salmon spawn each year and where as much as 1/3
of the juvenile salmon (or fry) spend their entire freshwater
lives. The Salmon Protection and Watershed Network leads
winter tours for the public to learn about and view these spawning
salmon, and also leads year-round opportunities for the public
to get involved in stream restoration, monitoring spawning and
smolt outmigration, juvenile fish rescue and relocation in the
summer, and advocacy and policy development.
Around 490
different species of birds have been observed in Marin County.
Demographics
As of the
census of 2000, there were 247,289 people, 100,650 households,
and 60,691 families residing in the county. The population density
was 476 people per square mile (184/km²). There were 104,990
housing units at an average density of 202 per square mile
(78/km²). The racial makeup of the county was 84.03% White,
2.89% Black or African American, 0.43% Native American, 4.53%
Asian, 0.16% Pacific Islander, 4.50% from other races, and 3.47%
from two or more races. 11.06% of the population were Hispanic
or Latino of any race. 11.5% were of Irish, 11.0% English, 10.2%
German and 8.4% Italian ancestry according to Census 2000. 80.8%
spoke English, 9.6% Spanish, 1.4% French and 1.1% German as
their first language.
In 2005
76.9% of Marin County's population was non-Hispanic whites.
12.6% of the population was Latino. 5.3% of the population was
Asian and 3.1% was African-American.
In 2000
there were 100,650 households out of which 27.5% had children
under the age of 18 living with them, 48.4% were married couples
living together, 8.5% had a female householder with no husband
present, and 39.7% were non-families. 29.8% of all households
were made up of individuals and 9.6% had someone living alone
who was 65 years of age or older. The average household size
was 2.34 and the average family size was 2.90.
In the county
the population was spread out with 20.3% under the age of 18,
5.5% from 18 to 24, 31.0% from 25 to 44, 29.7% from 45 to 64,
and 13.5% who were 65 years of age or older. The median age
was 41 years. For every 100 females there were 98.2 males. For
every 100 females age 18 and over, there were 96.4 males.
The median
income for a household in the county was $71,306, and the median
income for a family was $88,934. These figures had risen to
$83,732 and $104,750 respectively as of 2007. Males had a median
income of $61,282 versus $45,448 for females. The per capita
income for the county was $44,962. About 4.7% of families and
9.6% of the population were below the poverty line, including
6.9% of those under age 18 and 2.5% of those age 65 or over.
Marin County has the second highest median household income
in California behind Santa Clara County.
Marin County
has the highest per capita income of any county in the United
States. This is driven in particular by expensive enclaves in
Belvedere, Kentfield, Larkspur, Ross, Tiburon, Mill Valley,
Sausalito, San Anselmo, Corte Madera and portions of San Rafael
and Novato where displays of conspicuous consumption, especially
luxury cars, are common. The county has the highest density
of BMW cars (locally known as 'Basic Marin Wheels') in the United
States, according to the local BMW dealership.
The traditionally
middle class towns of Fairfax, Novato and San Rafael (where
per capita incomes typically paralleled the California state
average as late as 1985) also have experienced especially sharp
rises in real estate values, due in part to their proximity
to the "prestige" address areas. The county's resistance to
urban sprawl and its preservation of open space have also had
an upward impact on housing prices by reducing the number of
new subdivisions built in the area since 1970. The precedent
for this was set after a huge development project that would
have put a suburb atop the Marin Headlands called Marincello
was defeated in court.
The trend
of increased affluence has not held true for two neighborhoods
in particular, populated almost exclusively by low-income disadvantaged
groups: Marin City and the Canal area in San Rafael. Government
policies have both forbidden property owners from raising rents
and have also subsidized housing prices in these neighborhoods
for tenants who do not report incomes higher than 200% of the
poverty level on their IRS tax return. Marin City has a population
of 3,000 and is ethnically diverse with large East Asian, Hispanic,
and African American populations. Many families live in public
housing apartment buildings. The population in the Canal area
is largely Hispanic, with many households residing in apartment
units. San Rafael has asserted to the Federal Government that
this population is significantly undercounted by the U.S. Census
due to the high percentage of undocumented immigrants. They
assert that the 6.6% of the county-wide population listed as
below the poverty line is both under-reported and heavily concentrated
in the Canal area.
"Marin
County hot-tubber"
In 2002,
former U.S. President George H.W. Bush denounced convicted American
terrorist John Walker Lindh as "some misguided Marin County
hot-tubber," as a snide reference to the county's liberal, "hippie"
political culture. Outraged by the label, some local residents
wrote scathing letters to the Marin Independent Journal, complaining
of Bush's insensitive remarks. In response, Bush wrote a letter
to readers in the same newspaper, admitting regret and promising
to not use the phrases Marin County and hot tub "in the same
sentence again."
