Roble is a small place in Butte County, California. It's also sometimes called Roble Station or Robles. It's known as an "unincorporated community," which means it's a group of homes and businesses that isn't officially a city or town with its own local government.

Discovering Roble

Roble is located about 174 feet (or 53 meters) above the level of the sea. This measurement, called elevation, tells us how high a place is compared to the ocean.

How Roble Began

Roble got its start a long time ago because of a railroad line. It was founded along the tracks that connected it to another place called Durham. Railroads were very important in the past for moving people and goods, and many communities grew up around them.
