Castroville at a glance
Castroville is an unincorporated town of 7,515 people (2020) in Monterey County, known for its artichokes and the annual Castroville Artichoke Festival.
What that means for your plumbing
Castroville has many older homes near the town center, plus newer houses. Hard water, older drains and water heater replacements keep plumbers busy; see water softeners and filters. Farm equipment and field work around town mean many households keep outdoor sinks and hose bibs that see heavy use.
Near the sloughs
Low ground near the sloughs holds water, which can affect older sewer lines. Flat, low land near Moss Landing and the sloughs stays damp through the winter.
A lottery town
Juan Bautista Castro founded the town in 1863 on the family's Rancho Bolsa Nueva y Moro Cojo. The town site was split into 50-by-130-foot blocks, and 100 lots were given away by lottery to anyone who would clear the land and build a home. Old homes on those small lots often still have original pipes; see repiping. The artichoke fields around town are watered from the same aquifer that supplies many homes.
