Watsonville, a city of about 53,000 people in southern Santa Cruz County, sits in the Pajaro Valley near Monterey Bay. It is one of California's most productive farming regions, known for strawberries, berries and apples, and Driscoll's is headquartered here along with many growers, packers and coolers.

The city is largely Latino and family-oriented, and CA-1 and CA-152 carry heavy traffic between Santa Cruz, Monterey and Gilroy, so billboards reach farmworkers, commuters and local shoppers.
