Winchester is a Census Designated Place in Riverside County on the leading edge of growth in the Inland Empire of the Southern California mega-metro. Its population has grown from 2500 in 2010 to 3200 at present - roughly the same amount of people as live in Sierra County. Sierra County is governed by 5 Supervisors and has its own Sheriff's Department as well as its own planning, public health and public works departments. Sierra County has 1 city, Loyalton - population 740. Loyalton has a Mayor and a City Council. Winchester has none of those advantages.
