description:
The whole city is anti-corporate by design. A coastal college town near bay side Eureka. Rasta & hippy kids around every corner. Very eclectic mix of people. Coffee shops, hemp clothes, very laid back Northern Cal. Humboldt State University, need we say more?

"Arcata already has an inventory of global warming emissions and is working to meet the goals set in our Greenhouse Gas Reduction Plan."
-- Mayor Michael L. Machi, Arcata, CA
