Page "Santa Paula, California" Paragraph 18

Santa Paula has very few large retail stores, the largest of which are Kmart and Vons.

Many residents travel to neighboring cities to purchase hard goods.

Santa Paula's Main Street area consists mostly of clothing shops, specialty shops, novelty shops, 99-cent stores, restaurants, service-oriented businesses and office space.

The city is home to a smattering of neighborhood stores and small grocery markets.

Many of these small shops and markets have a distinct Latin-American flavor, often selling myriad imported items.

In addition some markets also have a meat department which sells a variety of beef, poultry, and seafood.
