Hi, Roger, All,

The City of Industry is about 25-30 miles east of Los Angeles, on the 
south-east end of the San Gabriel Valley (some call that area the Walnut 
Valley).  It is an area which has a preponderance of commercial/industrial 
business.  Near Rowland Heights, Hacienda Heights, West Covina, and La 
Puente, it is near residential areas and some of the best authentic Chinese 
food in the world (Rowland Heights, according to a Time magazine article of a 
couple years ago).  Primary east-west rail runs through the town.  No, Roger, 
it is solidly within the area of "smog."  Or haze.  Or, as I prefer to look 
at it (mostly accurately, but sometimes requiring imagination) an 
ocean-influenced climate.   That means temperate climate, mostly decent RH.  
A temperature inversion layer at about 6,000 feet reduces air mixing above 
that elevation, and the mountain range provides a container. Although the 
inversion layer  assures temperate climate, sometimes the smog is bad.   
FWIW, the smog is much less than the 70's.  The real pretty days are when the 
wind flow reverses, due to a high pressure area over the Nevada-Utah area, 
and it blows (gently for the nice days) down the mountains towards the ocean. 


The City of Industry is 30 to 40 minutes drive from the ocean (except rush 
hour), and not too much farther from the mountains.  Its a little farther to 
the desert, which is beautiful this time of year.
