Lompoc Gym Market -- Overview
Lompoc is a Central Coast city of about 45,000 in Santa Barbara County, defined by Vandenberg Space Force Base just north of town and by being the world's largest producer of cut flower seeds (the Lompoc Flower Fields bloom Apr-Aug). The military, federal prison complex (USP Lompoc), agriculture and a small wine industry shape the workforce. Fitness is value-driven: Anytime Fitness, In-Shape and a handful of locally owned strength gyms and CrossFit boxes serve residents.
