How many natives lived in San Juan capistrano?

Before the arrival of Spanish settlers, the area now known as San Juan Capistrano was home to the Acjachemen people, a group of Native Americans. Estimates suggest that there were around 1,000 to 3,000 Acjachemen natives living in the region at the time of European contact in the late 18th century. However, exact numbers can vary due to factors like disease and displacement following colonization. Today, the descendants of the Acjachemen continue to preserve their cultural heritage.
