Drive Home the Spirit of the Season
This holiday season, skip the long drives and shop local at Valencia Auto Center, where selection, service, and community spirit come together. Conveniently located along Creekside Road, Magic Mountain Parkway, and Valencia Boulevard, Valencia Auto Center is home to top automotive brands offering thousands of new and pre-owned vehicles, all backed by friendly service from neighbors you know and trust.
When you shop locally, your dollars stay right here in Santa Clarita, supporting jobs, city services, parks, and programs that keep our community strong. Many of the people who work within the Auto Center live in the SCV, raising their families and giving back through school sponsorships, youth programs, and nonprofit partnerships that brighten lives year-round.
As you check off your holiday list, remember that a new car, truck, or SUV is more than just a gift. It is an investment in your community. Valencia Auto Center is proud to be part of the place we all call home, helping Santa Clarita shine even brighter this season.

What a Small Business Owner in the SCV Buys when You Support Them
We talk to small business owners every day - and while they're wildly different in a million ways, there's one solid commonality: they are passionately committed to reinvesting the funds they make in the people they call neighbors and the community they call home. So, when you're deciding how to spend your hard-earned dollars this season, please consider what each dollar will "do" after it leaves your hands. Here's what we know our SCV small-biz friends spend their earnings on...
• Dinner at a Santa Clarita-owned and operated restaurant, because nothing tastes as good as keeping the joyful "shop local" vibes going
• Dance classes at a local studio for their kiddos
• Groceries at a store that employs SCV residents
• Gas at a station owned by an SCV franchisee who donates to local nonprofits
• Toys for the many holiday drives that benefit Santa Clarita kids
• Babysitting from a local single mom who's trying to make some extra cash this season
• Fruit and veggies from one of our SCV farmers markets that center local growers
This season, keep your dollars in Santa Clarita - because it makes our community a better place to work and live for all of us!
