El Segundo is a city in Los Angeles County, California. Many people think it is part of Los Angeles, well yes and noJ. El Segundo was incorporated on January 18th, 1917 as one of the Beach Cities of Los Angeles Country and part of the South Bay Cities Governments.
El Segundo translated from Spanish means’ The Second’ as in the second Standard Oil refinery on the West Coast. Since the first Standard Oil Refinery was in Richmond in Northern California. After many name changes what we know as Chevron and interestingly enough soon the company will be in its second century of operation.
Originally this geographic part of the Los Angeles coastal area was settled by the Chumash and Tongva Native American tribes. Now keep in mind this was hundreds of years ago.

El Segundo is also the home to the Los Angeles Air Force Base and the Space and Missile Systems Center (SMC) which is space-related acquisition company for the military and as I mentioned earlier the Chevron oil refinery.
