Natividad (Spanish for "Nativity") is an unincorporated community and ghost town in Monterey County, California.[1] It is located 5 miles (8 km) northeast of Salinas,[2] at an elevation of 164 feet (50 m).[1]

Natividad was named for the Rancho La Natividad Mexican land grant which included the community. It was the site of a significant battle of the Mexican-American War in 1846.[3] A post office operated at Natividad from 1855 to 1908.[2] Natividad was a bustling station for stage coaches in the 1850s until traffic was re-routed through Salinas.[2] The town declined after the completion of the Southern Pacific Railroad through Salinas in 1872, and its last remaining building, a saloon, was demolished in 1964.[4]

The Battle of Natividad of the Mexican-American War was fought just north of the townsite. A historical marker commemorates the battleground.[5]
