  • The city on California's southern coast would evolve dramatically over the course of four centuries, from the home of Chumash people to a Spanish settlement and mission, to an oceanfront jewel whose architecture and lifestyle have become the epitome of the California Dream. Jane Pauley takes a walk through the history of the "American Riviera."

      I don't see how it can be considered underrated. I think SB has a strong reputation for both quality of life and a desirable tourist destination. I've lived there and no its many appealing qualities. But the touristy aspect of it has always been a bit of a drag for locals who tend to prefer a more mellow lifestyle that's authentic instead of hyped by the tourist industry.

      @@surfwriter8461 Maybe underrated is the wrong word. I think I meant to say that SB has an understated elegance. Either way, I don't think SB is as common as LA/OC, San Diego, and Bay area for tourists and for living. I think I prefer it that way.

    This is my family's hometown! I am so glad you did a segment on this beautiful city my family and I call home. I wished this segment was much longer! Both sides of my family were born and raised there and we all went to the Old Mission for Mass. I left Santa Barbara when I was 8 when my family moved to Texas. For those interested, there are Tarahumara Indians from Chihuahua, chihuahua, Mexico that has lived in Santa Barbara for a very long time. I am 13 percent Tarahumara Indian after my DNA test came out. I found out that we are called, The Footrunners who ran marathons wearing just sandals. I have been studying my family history this past two years. I am proud of my history though as my family on both sides, has served in the U.S. military for over 5 generations.

    This is a bit deceptive, Santa Barbara was not always a Spanish town, prior to the earthquake it’s “downtown” looked was similar to most American downtowns at the time, after the earthquake destroyed much of what was Santa Barbara a group of socialite’s formed a coalition and petitioned for a uniform Spanish style (so much more to this and very interesting). Santa barbara was and continues to be a place where wealthy and international travelers come, although back then it was more of a health destination, known as a place with climate that could cure asthma, allergies and a slough of other ailments.

      It belonged to native tribes, indigenous people, first. Yes, California was essentially stolen from Mexico, and of course now that population of Latino people is the dominant one in many parts of California including Los Angeles where the vast majority of students in the school district are Latino/Hispanic. Which is why the white nationalists in the country are so worked up, fearful of losing "their country" to a "replacement" population when in fact THEY are the replacements of indigenous populations. Just like Trumpists: charging election fraud against others when they are the ones engaged in a despicable attempt to steal the election delegitimize the Biden administration and perpetuate their toxic form of cultural wars.

When the war happened, the US won it easily and agreed to pay Mexico at least $15 million in the peace treaty. Mexico gave up all that land from California to Texas cause they lost the war and got paid and also recognized the new borders of Texas under the US.

    Beautiful City name , it was bound to be great and well cared for.
    Saint Barbara is often portrayed with miniature chains and a tower. As one of the Fourteen Holy Helpers, Barbara continues to be a popular saint in modern times, perhaps best known as the patron saint of armorers, artillerymen, military engineers, miners and others who work with explosives because of her legend's association with lightning, and also of mathematicians.
    In the 12th century, the relics of Saint Barbara were brought from Constantinople to the St. Michael's Golden-Domed Monastery in Kyiv, where they were kept until the 1930s, when they were transferred to St. Volodymyr's Cathedral in the same city. In November 2012, Patriarch Filaret of The Ukrainian Orthodox Church - Kiev Patriarchate transferred a small part of St. Barbara's relics to St. Andrew Ukrainian Orthodox Cathedral in Bloomingdale, Illinois.
