Hi Jim,
The 2010 US Census found about 259 people living up there.  There are not very 
many. That was not counting the itinerant pundits in their pundit compound 
visiting on student visas.  The pundits on visa have been rolled in to the 
Vedic City number now, which sort of obscures the true number living up there.  
Sort of like with the actual dome meditation numbers being diluted with the 
pundit number.

Most meditators in the area live elsewhere.  Mostly in Fairfield.
Vedic City is mostly where TM tru-believers live.
Vedic city is thinly built, kind of rural suburban.
In the later 90's and through the '00's up to present, some number of 
baby-boomer age meditators who received windfall of inheritance or did okay in 
business built their ideal MSV home up there.  There were a couple guys who 
were land developer types who built some residential rental up there.

You can look on google earth.  The domes you can find easily on the north edge 
of Fairfield.  The Fairfield airport is north of the domes on the west side of 
the State highway.  Due west of the airport you'll run in to Vedic City.  
You'll see it is spread around.  The TM movement keeps a number of larger 
building out there.  Further West you'll see the pundit compounds.  They are 
really quite big.

Mostly you'll see the ground is quite open.
