When to go
Displays here switch on around sunset. In Ramona that means about 4:40 PM in early December and 4:42 PM by mid-month — the earliest sunsets of the year fall right in the middle of lights season. It is properly dark by about 5:09 PM, which is when the displays look their best. December nights in Ramona typically drop to around 36°F.

Practicalities
Residential displays have no facilities of their own — no parking, no toilets, nowhere to warm up — so it is worth knowing what is around. Within about three miles of the Ramona cluster, OpenStreetMap maps 1 public car park and 1 public toilet. Only 5 cafés or takeaways nearby, so bring a flask if you want one.
