The Encino Velodrome has provided an outdoor oval bicycle racing track since 1963.
Per the 2000 Census, the population of Encino was: 40,946; population density: 3,864.9 per sq. mile, population under 18: 18.25%; population Over 64: 20.08%; housing units: 18,519; land area: 10.59 square miles (27.44 square kilometers); and water area: 0.13 square miles (0.33 square kilometers)
Encino became a known part of the larger world in 1769, when Gasper de Portola was sent by King Carlos III of Spain to search for the harbor of Monterey.
California was claimed for Spain, and securing the northern borders of Alta California became a priority.
The Encino of today is a proud continuation of a long-standing history, one whose growth and strength can be compared to the mighty oaks, which gave Encino its name.
