Levee work and the flood map

The County’s SCR-3 levee, meant to protect more than 3,800 structures in north Oxnard, runs about two miles along the river’s south bank from the Bailard Landfill to the Union Pacific Railroad, with a floodwall at the golf club’s maintenance yard. Reaches 1 to 3 were raised by 2018. The final reach, on North Ventura Road, began in January 2025 and was expected to finish in 2026, after which the County will ask FEMA to revise the map.

FEMA released Oxnard maps in January 2010 that significantly changed River Ridge and RiverPark, then withdrew them a day later over technical errors. Check the current map for each home: in a high-risk zone, a federally backed mortgage requires flood insurance (FEMA, as of 2026).

River Ridge questions, answered

Is River Ridge inside Oxnard city limits?

Yes. The City owns the golf club and levies the landscape district, so City zoning and permits apply, unlike County-governed El Rio to the east.

How does River Ridge differ from Victoria Estates?

Victoria Estates lies west of North Patterson Road, where the landscape district ends. Its first tract map dates from 2002, and one master association runs its guarded gate. Compare Victoria Estates and Glen Eagles homes for sale.

What should I know about the landfill under the golf course?

A 2002 Regional Water Board order set groundwater monitoring and postclosure maintenance rules for the closed landfills, which reach south to Vineyard Avenue. Read the seller’s disclosures, then compare all Oxnard homes for sale with an Oxnard real estate agent.
