About Moss Landing

Unclaimed Property in Moss Landing

Moss Landing's high concentration of unclaimed property stems largely from its transient workforce tied to the marine research industry and Moss Landing Marine Laboratories, where researchers and graduate students frequently move without updating addresses. The area's proximity to the Moss Landing Harbor and commercial fishing operations also contributes, as seasonal workers often leave behind utility deposits and final paychecks.

Wells Fargo Bank NA holds $14.4K in unclaimed funds, likely from dormant accounts of former residents, while Capital One NA holds $269.96 in credit balances. The Elkhorn Slough area's mix of temporary research staff and seasonal agricultural workers creates a perfect storm for forgotten accounts, particularly around the old Pacific Gas & Electric plant site where many former employees may have overlooked final benefits or retirement account transfers.
