Tour Overview
Welcome to Jingletown! One of the many neighborhoods in the Sausal Creek watershed, the name "Jingletown" has a few possible origins. One theory is that it comes from the bells local farmers used to jingle to call their cattle home. Others say Jingletown comes from the sound of coins jingling in the pockets of Portuguese immigrants who were flaunting their newfound wealth after receiving a week's pay.
