Casa Conejo (/ˌkɑːsə kəˈneɪoʊ/ ; Spanish for "Rabbit House") is an unincorporated county island in Newbury Park, Ventura County, California, United States.[6] It was the first planned community in Newbury Park and began building in 1960. When the city of Thousand Oaks incorporated 4 years later, the new developments in Newbury Park were incorporated into the city boundaries before being subdivided.[7] The community is bordered by Old Conejo Road and US 101 to the north, Borchard Road to the south, Jenny Drive to the west, and Sequoia Middle School to the east. For statistical purposes, the United States Census Bureau has defined Casa Conejo as a census-designated place (CDP). The census definition of the area may not precisely correspond to local understanding of the area with the same name. The population was 3,249 at the 2010 census, up from 3,180 at the 2000 census. Casa Conejo is located in a roughly rectangle-shaped unincorporated area surrounded by the city of Thousand Oaks.
The Casa Conejo Municipal Advisory Council (MAC) serves Casa Conejo residents,[8] and makes recommendations to the Board of Supervisors.[9] Its purpose is to provide a forum for Casa Conejo residents to discuss issues and come with ideas to the Board of Supervisors.[10] While numerous other unincorporated islands were ultimately annexed by the City of Thousand Oaks during the 1980s, Casa Conejo voters rejected such efforts and remains an unincorporated pocket surrounded by Newbury Park.[7] While Newbury Park is in Thousand Oaks, Casa Conejo is in Newbury Park but not in Thousand Oaks.[11]
