Welcome to Acton

A small town at the base of the Sierra Pelona Mountains, Acton has a large number of ranch-style homes, some with livestock and equestrian facilities. Residents live in both the valley and the foothills of Acton, which has a rich history of gold, copper, and titanium ore mining. Because former Governor Henry T. Gage owned a mine there, Acton was considered a possible location for the California state capital at the turn of the century. Shambala Preserve, owned by actress Tippi Herden, is a rescue facility for wild felines, and one of many filming locations in Acton.
