| Occidental is a census-designated place in Sonoma County, California. It sits at an elevation of 594 ft (181 m). The population was 1,132 at the 2020 census, up from 1,115 at the 2010 census. Established in 1876 as the final stop on the North Pacific Coast Railroad, Occidental is a town whose modern-day charms are rooted in its past. | |
| As you explore, you’ll find many local nods to that Western railway heritage, including businesses housed in a former train station, railroad saloon, and boarding house. Occidental's time as a transportation hot spot made it a popular vacation destination, a reputation it still holds. Now, however, it's more known for its laid-back vibes, eclectic boutique shopping, outdoor delights, and being a stop along the scenic Bohemian Highway. This small town is brimming with ways to disconnect with life’s hustle and reconnect with yourself and travel companions. Shop for artisan-made souvenirs and crystals in the locally owned spots that line the two-block downtown or settle into a wine tasting. | |
