Small northern California white
trash town in the middle of Humboldt County. Population of approx. 70,000 and a diverse mix of old hippies, hobos, stoners, hicks from across the river, okies, escalade-driving
pot growers, wanna-be-wealthy land owners, cowboys, and the
random average school teacher. The "cool places" to meet include Safeway Parking Lot and the Tracks (also across the river.) In the
summer the river and beach are the close by spots to be especially Miranda. Fortuna boasts the largest screen on the North Coast! and is also known to all around as "the friendly city". Stop by taco loco for a cheap burrito.
Guy #1: ""Dude, should we go to Arcata tonight to get
high or drink beer and
chew in Ferndale?"
Guy # 2: "Let's
compromise and head into Fortuna, CA"
