Acorn, Santa Barbara County, California

No evidence found that this location is or has ever been notable. The article's only citation is to the USGS GNIS verifying that there was once a site with this name. The only other verification I could find was old topographic maps (most recent from 1947) showing the site with that name, absolutely nothing else since then.

 * Delete: At these coordinates, Google Earth and Google Street View show just a compound at 901 Floradale Avenue belonging to Launchpad Land, apparently an agribusiness. Lots of agricultural equipment and some living facilities for migrant field workers (that's from the sign at the gate). There are several more buildings scattered along a mile of Floradale Avenue. Other than that, it's just 100s of acres/hectares of crops. It's about a mile west of Lompoc, California. My ref check came up empty.
 * If there's something of historical interest that would make this place notable, ping me.

 * Delete I found one newspaper reference to Acorn being a place, and that articles makes it sound like the site of an agricultural plant, not a community. Likely yet another of the mistaken GNIS "populated place" entries. TheCatalyst31 Reaction•Creation 03:32, 23 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete This appears to be a named place but not a notable community. ~ EDDY  ( talk / contribs )~ 23:19, 27 July 2023 (UTC)
