Un gran cambio se produciu rapidamente despois da adquisición de Santa Bárbara polos Estados Unidos. A poboación duplicouse entre 1850 e 1860. En 1851, o agrimensor Salisbury Haley deseñou o trazado do plano das rúas en cuadrículas y creó doglegs en ciertas intersecciones.{{sfn|Tompkins|1983|p= 113}} Wood construction replaced adobe as American settlers moved in; during the Gold Rush years and following, the town became a haven for bandits and gamblers, and a dangerous and lawless place. Charismatic gambler and highwayman [[Jack Powers]] had virtual control of the town in the early 1850s, until driven out by a posse organized in San Luis Obispo. English gradually supplanted Spanish as the language of daily life, becoming the language of official record in 1870.<ref>Baker, p. 34-35</ref> The first newspaper, the ''Santa Barbara Gazette'', was founded in 1855.<ref>Baker, p. 39</ref>

Durante os anos da [[Febre do ouro de California|febre do ouro]] e os seguientes, a cidade converteuse nun refuxio para bandidos e xogadores, e nun lugar perigroso e sen lei. O carismático xogador e bandoleiro Jack Powers tiña o control virtual da cidade a principios da década de 1850, até que foi expulsado por un grupo organizado en San Luis Obispo. O [[lingua inglesa|inglés]] foi gradualmente substituíndo ao [[lingua castelá|español]] como o idioma da vida cotiá, converténdose no idioma do rexistro oficial en [[1870]].
While the [[American Civil War|Civil War]] had little effect on Santa Barbara, the disastrous drought of 1863 ended the Rancho Period, as most of the cattle died and ranchos were broken up and sold. Mortimer Cook, a wealthy entrepreneur, arrived in 1871 and opened the city's first bank. Cook later served two terms as mayor.<ref>{{cite news|last1=Redmon|first1=Michael|title=Early Banks and Banking in Santa Barbara|url=http://www.independent.com/news/2014/dec/10/early-banks-and-banking-santa-barbara/|work=[[Santa Barbara Independent]]|date=December 10, 2014}}</ref> Cook founded the first National Gold Bank of Santa Barbara in 1873. The building of [[Stearns Wharf]] in 1872 enhanced Santa Barbara's commercial and tourist accessibility; previously goods and visitors had to transfer from steamboats to smaller craft to row ashore. During the 1870s, writer [[Charles Nordhoff (journalist)|Charles Nordhoff]] promoted the town as a health resort and destination for well-to-do travelers from other parts of the U.S.; many of them came, and many stayed. The luxurious Arlington Hotel dated from this period. In 1887 the railroad finally went through to Los Angeles, and in 1901 to San Francisco: Santa Barbara was now easily accessible by land and by sea, and subsequent development was brisk.<ref>Baker, pp. 56–59, 66</ref>

Cook fundou o primeiro ''National Gold Bank of Santa Barbara'' en [[1873]]. El edificio de Stearns Wharf en 1872 mellorou a accesibilidade comercialey turística de Santa Bárbara; anteriormente, os bens e os visitantes tiñan que trasladarse desde os barcos de vapor a embarcacións máis pequenas para chegar a terra. Durante a década de [[1870]], o escritor Charles Nordhoff promoveu a cidade como un centro de saúde e destino para viaxeiros acomodados doutras partes dos EE. UU.; moitos deles foron alí, e moitos quedaron. O luxoso hotel Arlington data deste período. En [[1887]] o ferrocarril finalmente chegou até [[Os Ánxeles]] e, en [[1901]], a [[San Francisco]]: daquela podíase acceder facilmente a Santa Bárbara por terra e mar, e o desenvolvemento posterior foi rápido.{{sfn|Baker|2004|pp= 56–59, 66}}
 
Peter J. Barber, un arquitecto, deseñou moitas residencias de [[estilo victoriano]] tardío e exerceu dúas veces como alcalde, en 1880 e, novamente, en 1890. Un ano despois do mandato de Barber como alcalde, o presidente [[Benjamin Harrison]] foi o primero dos cinco presidentes que visitaron Santa Bárbara.<ref>{{cite news|last1=Redmon|first1=Michael|title=Theodore Roosevelt visits Santa Barbara|url=http://www.independent.com/news/2014/sep/16/theodore-roosevelt-visits-santa-barbara/|dataacceso=19 de febreiro de 2020|newspaper=Independent|data=16 de setembro de 2014}}</ref>

Xusto antes do comezo do [[século XX]] descubriuse petróleo en Summerland, e a rexión ao longo da praia leste de Santa Bárbara brotaron numerosas torres de perforación e plataformas para perforar en alta mar. Este foi o primeiro campo petrolífero en alta mar do mundo; aa extracción de petróleo en alta mar converteríase nunha práctica polémica na zona de Santa Bárbara, que continúa até os nostros días.{{sfn|Baker|2004|p= 63}}
Just before the turn of the 20th century, oil was discovered at the [[Summerland Oil Field]], and the region along the beach east of Santa Barbara sprouted numerous oil derricks and piers for [[Offshore drilling|drilling offshore]]. This was the first offshore oil development in the world; oil drilling offshore would become a contentious practice in the Santa Barbara area, which continues to the present day.<ref>Baker, p. 63</ref>

While this quake, like the one in 1812, was centered in the Santa Barbara Channel, it caused no tsunami. It came at an opportune time for rebuilding, since a movement for architectural reform and unification around a [[Spanish Colonial Revival architecture|Spanish Colonial style]] was already underway. Under the leadership of [[Pearl Chase]], many of the city's famous buildings rose as part of the rebuilding process, including the [[Santa Barbara County Courthouse]], sometimes praised as the "most beautiful public building in the United States." There is also the unfortunate incident that happened in 1907, which included a horrific train accident that took the lives of 32 people.<ref>{{cite news|last1=Redmon|first1=Michael|title=1907 Train Wreck|url=http://www.independent.com/news/2013/jul/02/1907-train-wreck/ |work=[[Santa Barbara Independent]]|date=July 2, 2013}}</ref>
