Susanville (formerly known as Rooptown) is a town in and the county seat of Lassen County, California, United States. [4] Susanville is located on the Susan River in the southern part of the county, [5] at an elevation of 4,186 feet (1,276 m). [4] Its population is 16,728 as of the 2020 census, down from 17,947 from the 2010 census.

Contents

Susanville, a former logging and mining town, is the site of two state prisons: the California Correctional Center, a minimum-medium security facility, which opened in 1963; and the High Desert State Prison, California (not to be confused with High Desert State Prison, Nevada), which opened in 1995. The Federal Correctional Institution, Herlong is nearby, having opened in 2001.

The prisons and their effects on the community, including the addition of local jobs, were explored in the documentary Prison Town, USA (2007), aired on PBS. [6] [7] Nearly half the adult population of Susanville works at the three prisons in the area, where 6,000 people are incarcerated. [8]

Etymology

It was originally known as Rooptown, named for Isaac Roop, a pioneer of the Honey Lake District. [4] Roop later renamed the town Susanville in honor of his daughter in 1857. [9]

History

The Susanville US post office was established in 1860. [5] Susanville was incorporated in 1900. [5]

Formerly the center of farming, mining and the lumber industry, Susanville suffered from the loss of jobs as these industries changed or declined in the 20th century. Since the late 20th century, the only area of growth in the economy has been associated with the construction and operation of two state prisons in the city and one federal prison in the area. In 2007, half of the adult population of Susanville worked in the prisons: [8] the California Correctional Center, a minimum-medium security facility, which opened in 1963; the High Desert State Prison, California (not to be confused with High Desert State Prison, Nevada), which opened in 1995; and the Federal Correctional Institution, Herlong, which opened in 2007.

Susanville is located at the head of Honey Lake Valley, 40 miles (64 km) east of Lassen Peak, [9] The elevation is approximately 4,186 feet (1,276 m) above sea level. [4] It is considered a gateway city to Reno on U.S. Route 395.

According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 8.03 square miles (20.8 km2), of which 7.95 square miles (20.58 km2) or 98.93% is land and 0.09 square miles (0.22 km2) or 1.07% is water.

Eagle Lake is located 15 miles (24 km) north of the town.[ citation needed ]

Susanville is underlain by igneous rock, which provides the parent material for its well-drained brown stony to gravelly sandy loams or loams. On the western outskirts under forest cover, the soils are often reddish brown. The most common soil series in Susanville's urban area is Springmeyer gravelly fine sandy loam. [10]
