History
Templeton is located on the Rancho Paso de Robles Mexican land grant. Templeton was founded in 1886 when Chauney Hatch Phillips of the West Coast Land Company sent R.R. Harris to survey 160 acres (0.65 km2) south of Paso Robles. This land was to be laid out in business and residential lots and 5-12 acre parcels for a town named "Crocker" after Charles Crocker, which was later changed to "Templeton", after Crocker's son. The town was the end of the line for passengers coming via railroad from the north; tourists disembarked here and took a stagecoach south to San Luis Obispo. In 1891 the railroad continued south and the town was reduced to a flag stop and is now a bypass. In 1897 there was a great fire which burned most of the business district. The town was rebuilt, but much smaller than it had once been.


Climate
Templeton has a Mediterranean climate that is characterized by mild winters and dry summers. The area usually has low humidity. Rain generally falls only between November and March, with the rainy season tapering off almost completely by the end of April. Temperature lows can reach from 10 to 15 °F in the winter, and highs reaching up to 115 °F (46 °C) in the summer.
