Hycksville covered many thousands of acres in Lonpoc. Most of the land is now called Vandenberg Air Force Base. The federal government took most of the Hycks property. At first, the government offered one dollar an acre. When the Hycks refused to sell the government just declaired the land federal property. There is a lot written about Hycksville in the Lompoc Library.
