Line 76 ⟶ 77:
When New Spain won its independence from the [[Spanish Empire]] and Alta California became part of Mexico, the trade restrictions were lifted, and the town flourished.
 
Under United States control after 1848, when the United States defeated Mexico in the [[Mexican–American War]], the harbor was greatly improved and expanded under the guidance of [[Phineas Banning]] and [[John G. Downey|John Gately Downey]], the seventh governor of California after the [[Free Harbor Fight]]. In 1868 Banning created the [[Los Angeles & San Pedro Railroad]], Southern California's first railroad and used it to transport goods from [[San Pedro Bay (California)|San Pedro Bay]] to [[Los Angeles]], which soon became a major city in Southern California.<ref name=kcet>{{cite web |url=http://www.kcet.org/updaily/socal_focus/history/la-as-subject/lost-train-depots-of-los-angeles.html |title=Lost Train Depots of Los Angeles |author=Nathan Masters |date=January 17 January, 2013 |work=Socal Focus |publisher=KCET}}</ref>

San Pedro was a township in the 1860 census.

===United States Navy Battle Fleet home port 1919–1940===
[[File:USS Nevada, San Pedro.jpg|thumb|upright=1.3| [[USS Nevada (BB-36)|USS ''Nevada'']], port of call at San Pedro, 1934]]
In 1888, the [[United States Department of War|War Department]] took control of a tract of land next to the bay and added to it in 1897 and 1910. This became [[Fort MacArthur]] in 1914 and was a coastal defense site for many years. [[Woodrow Wilson]] transferred 200 United States Navy ships from the Atlantic to the Pacific in 1919 when tension arose between the United States and Japan over the fate of China. [[San Diego Bay]] was considered too shallow for the largest ships, so the [[battleship]]s anchored in San Pedro Bay on August 9, 1919. Local availability of fuel oil minimized transportation costs, and consistently good weather allowed frequent gunnery exercises off the nearby [[Channel Islands of California]]. The heavy [[cruiser]]s of the [[Scouting Fleet|Scouting Force]] were transferred from the Atlantic to San Pedro in response to the 1931 [[Japanese invasion of Manchuria]]. By 1934, 14 battleships, two [[aircraft carrier]]s, 14 cruisers, and 16 support ships were based at San Pedro. On April 1, 1940, the [[United States Pacific Fleet|Pacific Fleet]] battleships sailed to Hawaii for annual fleet exercises. The battleships remained in the [[Hawaiian Islands]] to deter Japanese aggression until the [[attack on Pearl Harbor]]. The [[fleet post office]], supply depot, fuel depot, [[degaussing]] range, [[Electronic countermeasure|ECM]] repair facility, and naval training schools for small craft, fire fighters, merchant ship communications, and anti-submarine attack remained at San Pedro through World War II;<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.ibiblio.org/hyperwar/USN/ref/USN-Act/CA.html|title=U.S. Naval Activities World War II by State|publisher=Patrick Clancey|access-date=2012-03-March 19, 2012}}</ref> but the battle fleet never returned.<ref name="proceedings">Beigel, Harvey M.

===Population history===
[[File:Spectators watching a bicyclist on Beacon Street, San Pedro, ca.1907 (CHS-4783).jpg|thumb|A cyclist on Beacon Street around the time of annexation by Los Angeles in 1909]]
Ethnically diverse San Pedro was a magnet for European immigrants from various countries for years, reflected in the number of restaurants representing diverse cuisines, especially [[Croatian cuisine|Croatian]], [[Portuguese cuisine|Portuguese]], [[Mexican cuisine|Mexican]], [[Italian cuisine|Italian]], [[Irish cuisine|Irish]] and [[Greek cuisine|Greek]]. San Pedro is home to the largest Italian-American community in Southern California, centered on the "Via Italia" (South Cabrillo Avenue). San Pedro is also considered the heart of the [[Croatian people|Croatian]] and [[Norwegians|Norwegian]] communities in Los Angeles. The Croatian community, originally composed of seafarers and fishermen from the [[Dalmatia]] (especially the islands of [[Brač]], [[Hvar]], [[Vis (island)|Vis]] and [[Korčula]]) region, has been present in San Pedro since the settlement began more than 200 years ago. The City of Los Angeles even named a stretch of 9th Street "Croatian Place" in honor of the city's old Croatian community. The Norwegian presence can be felt at the [[Norwegian Seamen's Church, San Pedro|Norwegian Seamen's Church]].
 
Until February 1942, San Pedro was home to a vibrant [[Japanese diaspora|Japanese]] immigrant community of about 3,000 people who lived in what had been described as a "typical Japanese Fishing Village" on [[Terminal Island]] (East San Pedro). These Japanese immigrants pioneered albacore fishing out of San Pedro Bay and harvesting abalone off White Point,<ref>[http://www.cr.nps.gov/history/online_books/5views/5views4h87.htm NPS.gov] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20050117093627/http://www.cr.nps.gov/history/online_books/5views/5views4h87.htm |date=January 17, 2005 }}</ref> thus leading the way in establishing a viable fishing industry in San Pedro. The 48-hour forced expulsion of these San Pedro residents and the razing of their homes and shops, as part of the [[Japanese-American internment]] during World War II, is described in [[Jeanne Wakatsuki Houston]]'s memoir ''[[Farewell to Manzanar]]''.
