The purpose of the research is to document and analyze the location patterns of warehousing and distribution activity in California. The growth of California's warehousing and distribution (W&D) activities and their spatial patterns is affected by several factors, including population and economic growth, shifting supply chains and distribution practices, scale economies in warehousing, and the state's role in international and domestic trade. The location of W&D activities has implications for freight demand and flows, and thus is a critical element in statewide transportation planning. |
