The&nbsp;Gabriele&ntilde;o&nbsp;indigenous group inhabited Irvine about 2,000 years ago.&nbsp;Gaspar de Portol&agrave;, a Spanish explorer, came to the area in 1769, which led to the establishment of forts,&nbsp;missions&nbsp;and cattle herds. The&nbsp;King of Spain&nbsp;parceled out land for missions and private use.
After Mexico's independence from Spain in 1821, the Mexican government secularized the missions and assumed control of the lands. It began distributing the land to Mexican citizens who applied for grants. Three large&nbsp;Spanish/Mexican grants&nbsp;made up the land that later became the Irvine Ranch:&nbsp;Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana,&nbsp;Rancho San Joaquin&nbsp;and&nbsp;Rancho Lomas de Santiago.
&nbsp; Camp Bonita at Irvine Ranch in 1937 In 1864,&nbsp;Jose Andres Sepulveda, owner of Rancho San Joaquin sold 50,000 acres (200&nbsp;km2) to Benjamin and Thomas Flint,&nbsp;Llewellyn Bixby&nbsp;and&nbsp;James Irvine&nbsp;for $18,000 to resolve debts due to the Great Drought. In 1866, Irvine, Flint and Bixby acquired 47,000-acre (190&nbsp;km2) Rancho Lomas de Santiago for $7,000. After the&nbsp;Mexican-American war&nbsp;the land of Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana fell prey to tangled titles. In 1868, the ranch was divided among four claimants as part of a lawsuit: Flint, Bixby and Irvine. The ranches were devoted to sheep grazing. However, in 1870,&nbsp;tenant farming&nbsp;was permitted.
In 1878,&nbsp;James Irvine&nbsp;acquired his partners' interests for $150,000. His 110,000 acres (450&nbsp;km2) stretched 23 miles (37&nbsp;km) from the Pacific Ocean to the&nbsp;Santa Ana River. James Irvine died in 1886. The ranch was inherited by his son,&nbsp;James Irvine II, who incorporated it into&nbsp;The Irvine Company. James Irvine II shifted the ranch operations to field crops, olive and citrus crops.
In 1888, the Santa Fe Railroad extended its line to Fallbrook Junction, north of San Diego, and named a station along the way after James Irvine. The town that formed around this station was named Myford, after Irvine's son, because a post office in Calaveras County already bore the family name. The town was renamed Irvine in 1914.
&nbsp; Suburban development in Irvine Ranch in 1975 &nbsp; The developing urban core in the city of Irvine in 2010 By 1918, 60,000 acres (240&nbsp;km2) of&nbsp;lima beans&nbsp;were grown on the Irvine Ranch. Two&nbsp;Marine Corps&nbsp;facilities,&nbsp;MCAS El Toro&nbsp;and&nbsp;MCAS Tustin, were built during World War II on ranch land sold to the government.
James Irvine II, died in 1947 at the age of 80. His son, Myford, assumed the presidency of The Irvine Company. He began opening small sections of the Irvine Ranch to urban development.
The Irvine Ranch played host to the&nbsp;Boy Scouts of America's&nbsp;1953 National Scout Jamboree.&nbsp;Jamboree Road, a major street which now stretches from Newport Beach to the city of Orange, was named in honor of this event.&nbsp;David Sills, then a young Boy Scout from&nbsp;Peoria, Illinois, was among the attendees at the 1953 Jamboree. Sills came back to Irvine as an adult and went on to serve four terms as the city's mayor.
Myford Irvine died in 1959. The same year, the University of California asked The Irvine Company for 1,000 acres (4 km2) for a new university campus. The Irvine Company sold the requested land for $1 and later the state purchased an additional 500 acres (2.0 km2).
William Pereira, the university's consulting architect, and The Irvine Company planners drew up master plans for a city of 50,000 people surrounding the new university. The plan called for industrial, residential and recreational areas, commercial centers and greenbelts. The new community was to be named Irvine; the old agricultural town of Irvine, where the railroad station and post office were located, was renamed East Irvine. The first phases of the villages of Turtle Rock, University Park, Westpark (then called Culverdale), El Camino Real, and Walnut were completed by 1970.
On December 28, 1971, the residents of these communities voted to incorporate a substantially larger city than the one envisioned by the Pereira plan. By January 1999, Irvine had a population of 134,000 and a total area of 43 square miles (111 km2).
In the 1970s, the mayor was&nbsp;Bill Vardoulis.
After the&nbsp;Fall of Saigon&nbsp;in 1975, a large influx of&nbsp;Vietnamese&nbsp;refugees&nbsp;settled in nearby&nbsp;Fountain Valley, especially in the late 1970s and throughout the 80s, forming a large percentage of&nbsp;Asian Americans&nbsp;in the city.
In late 2003, after a ten-year-long legal battle, Irvine annexed the former El Toro Marine Corps Air Station. This added 7.3 square miles (19 km2) of land to the city and blocked an initiative championed by Newport Beach residents to replace John Wayne Airport with a new airport at El Toro. Most of this land has become part of the Orange County Great Park.

Anaheim is a city outside Los Angeles, in Southern California. It's home to the Disneyland Resort, a massive complex of family-friendly, Disney-themed rides, restaurants, hotels and shops. The city's also home to pro sports teams. The Honda Center is the indoor arena where the Anaheim Ducks hockey team plays, and Angel Stadium is the home field of the Los Angeles Angels baseball team.
Anaheim was founded by fifty&nbsp;German families&nbsp;in 1857 and&nbsp;incorporated&nbsp;as the second city in&nbsp;Los Angeles County&nbsp;on March 18, 1876;&nbsp;Orange County was split off from Los Angeles County in 1889. Anaheim remained largely an agricultural community until&nbsp;Disneyland&nbsp;opened in 1955. This led to the construction of several hotels and motels around the area, and residential districts in Anaheim soon followed. The city also developed into an industrial center, producing electronics, aircraft parts and canned fruit. Anaheim is a&nbsp;charter city.
Anaheim's city limits extend almost the full width of Orange County, from&nbsp;Cypress&nbsp;in the west, twenty miles east to the&nbsp;Riverside County&nbsp;line, encompassing a diverse range of neighborhoods. In the west, mid-20th-century&nbsp;tract houses&nbsp;predominate.&nbsp;Downtown Anaheim&nbsp;has three mixed-use historic districts, the largest of which is the Anaheim Colony. South of downtown, a center of commercial activity of regional importance begins, the&nbsp;Anaheim&ndash;Santa Ana edge city, which stretches east and south into the cities of Orange, Santa Ana and Garden Grove. This&nbsp;edge city&nbsp;includes the&nbsp;Disneyland Resort, with two theme parks, multiple hotels, and&nbsp;its retail district; Disney is part of the larger&nbsp;Anaheim Resort&nbsp;district with numerous other hotels and retail complexes. The&nbsp;Platinum Triangle, a neo-urban&nbsp;redevelopment&nbsp;district surrounding&nbsp;Angel Stadium, which is planned to be populated with mixed-use streets and high-rises. Further east, Anaheim Canyon is an industrial district north of the&nbsp;Riverside Freeway&nbsp;and east of the&nbsp;Orange Freeway. The city's eastern third consists of&nbsp;Anaheim Hills, a community built to a master plan, and open land east of the&nbsp;Route 241&nbsp;tollway.

Brea (/?bre??/; meaning "oil" or "tar" in Spanish) is a city in northern Orange County, California. The population as of the 2010 census was 39,282. It is located 33 miles (53 km) southeast of Los Angeles.
The city began as a center of crude oil production, was later propelled by citrus production, and is now an important retail center because of the large Brea Mall and the recently redeveloped Brea Downtown. Brea is also known for its extensive public art program which began in 1975 and continues today with over 140 artworks in the collection placed and located throughout the city. Brea's public art program has been used as a model and inspiration for many public art programs across the United States.
The village of Olinda was founded in present-day Carbon Canyon at the beginning of the 19th century and many entrepreneurs came to the area searching for "black gold" (petroleum). In 1894, the owner of the land, Abel Stearns, sold 1,200 acres (4.9 km2) to the west of Olinda to the newly created Union Oil Company of California, and by 1898 many nearby hills began sporting wooden oil-drilling towers on the newly discovered Brea-Olinda Oil Field. In 1908 the village of Randolph, named for railway engineer Epes Randolph, was founded just south of Brea Canyon for the oil workers and their families. Baseball legend Walter Johnson grew up in Olinda at the start of the 20th century where he worked in the surrounding oil fields as a youth.
The villages of Olinda and Randolph grew and merged as the economy boomed, and on January 19, 1911, the town's map was filed under the new name of&nbsp;Brea, from the Spanish language word for&nbsp;natural asphalt (also called bitumen, pitch or tar). With a population of 752, Brea was&nbsp;incorporated&nbsp;on February 23, 1917, as the eighth official city of&nbsp;Orange County.
As oil production declined, some agricultural development took place, especially lemon and orange groves. In the 1920s, the Brea Chamber of Commerce promoted the city with the slogan &ldquo;Oil, Oranges, and Opportunity.&rdquo; In 1950 Brea had a population of 3,208. The citrus groves gave way gradually to industrial parks and residential development. In 1956, Carl N. Karcher opened the first two Carl's Jr. restaurants in Anaheim, California and Brea, California. The opening of the Orange Freeway (57) and the Brea Mall in the 1970s spurred further residential growth, including large planned developments east of the 57 Freeway in the 1980s, 1990s, and 2000s. In the late 1990s, a 50-acre (200,000 m2) swath of downtown Brea centered on Brea Boulevard and Birch Street was heavily redeveloped into a shopping and entertainment area with movie theaters, sidewalk cafes, a live comedy club from The Improv chain, numerous shops and restaurants, and a weekly farmer's market. It is locally known and signed as Downtown Brea.
Sunset&nbsp;magazine named Brea one of the five best suburbs to live in the Western United States in early 2006

Fullerton was founded in 1887. It secured the land on behalf of the&nbsp;Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway. Historically it was a center of&nbsp;agriculture, notably groves of Valencia&nbsp;oranges&nbsp;and other&nbsp;citrus&nbsp;crops;&nbsp;petroleum&nbsp;extraction; transportation; and manufacturing. It is home to numerous higher educational institutions, particularly&nbsp;California State University, Fullerton&nbsp;and&nbsp;Fullerton College. From the mid-1940s through the late 1990s, Fullerton was home to a large industrial base made up of&nbsp;aerospace&nbsp;contractors, canneries, paper products manufacturers, and is considered to be the birthplace of the&nbsp;electric guitar, due in a large part to&nbsp;Leo Fender. The headquarters of&nbsp;Vons, which is owned by&nbsp;Albertsons, is located in Fullerton near the Fullerton-Anaheim&nbsp;line.
The first years of the 21st century have seen several political issues played out against a backdrop of class division (between the more affluent northern and western parts of the city and the southern portion of the city, which borders Anaheim), rapidly diminishing supplies of undeveloped land, and demographic changes (including the influx of Asian and Latino immigrants into an area previously dominated by Caucasian Americans).
As in many cities, growth and development are contentious issues. In the 1990s, the downtown commercial district had become economically depressed, and was known mainly for being an area of sleepy antique stores and small shops. A symbol of downtown's problems was the&nbsp;Fox Theatre, a local landmark, which had fallen into disrepair. As of November 2004, a fundraising drive had accumulated sufficient funds to buy the theater, but not yet enough money to restore it. By 2006, restoration was started.
During this same period, the downtown area (a.k.a. DTF), especially south of Commonwealth Avenue (a.k.a. SOCO),[11]&nbsp;has become more of a busy entertainment district, described by the&nbsp;OC Weekly&nbsp;as "Bourbon Street&nbsp;West." In less than five years, some 30 businesses that sell alcohol have opened, making the downtown area much more active at night. Ranging from a mixture of Mexican cantinas and Asian bars to Jazz, local venues and music stores, with the festive atmosphere have come problems such as public drunkenness, fights and a shortage of parking. In 2008, City Manager Chris Meyer called together department head and the finance department and reported to the city council that the Restaurant Overlay District (established December 2002)was costing the city $935,000 over and above the sales taxes collected. Then four officers were hired for downtown, bringing the costs to $1,600,000 a year. The ROD had abolished condition use; a new ordinance to establish restrictions was drafted and adopted by the city council in 2008. a police task force last year[clarification needed][when?]&nbsp;has addressed some of these problems.
The 293-acre (1.19&nbsp;km2)&nbsp;Hughes Aircraft Company's Ground Systems Group campus in western Fullerton was redeveloped into a major new residential and commercial district, called&nbsp;Amerige Heights,&nbsp;in 2001&ndash;2004. This development was accompanied by extreme shifts in neighborhood property values, first dropping precipitously in the late 1980s to early 1990s as the former Hughes employees sold their houses, and then rising rapidly as part of a general increase in real estate values throughout Orange County.

Chino&nbsp;(/?t?i?no?/&nbsp;CHEE-noh) is a city in the western end of&nbsp;San Bernardino County, California, United States with&nbsp;Los Angeles County&nbsp;to its west and&nbsp;Orange County&nbsp;to its south in the Southern California region. Chino is adjacent to&nbsp;Chino Hills, California. Chino's surroundings have long been a center of agriculture and&nbsp;dairy farming, providing milk products in&nbsp;Southern California&nbsp;and much of the southwestern United States. Chino's agricultural history dates back to the Spanish land grant forming&nbsp;Rancho Santa Ana del Chino. The area specialized in orchard, row crops and dairy.
Chino is bounded by&nbsp;Chino Hills, and&nbsp;Los Angeles County&nbsp;to the west, Pomona to the northwest, unincorporated&nbsp;San Bernardino County&nbsp;(near&nbsp;Montclair) to the north,&nbsp;Ontario&nbsp;to the northeast, Eastvale to the southeast in&nbsp;Riverside County&nbsp;and&nbsp;Orange County&nbsp;to the southwest. It is easily accessible via the&nbsp;Chino Valley&nbsp;(71) and&nbsp;Pomona&nbsp;(60) freeways. The population was 77,983 at the 2010 census.
Downtown Chino is home to satellite branches of the San Bernardino County Library and Chaffey Community College, the Chino Community Theatre, the Chino Boxing Club and a weekly Farmer's Market. In 2008, the city of Chino was awarded the prestigious "100 Best Communities for Youth" award for the second time in three years. Chino hosted shooting events for the 1984 Summer Olympics at the Prado Olympic Shooting Park in the Prado Regional Park.

Chino

Pre-development - After the Spanish founded Mission San Gabriel in 1771, the Chino Hills region was used extensively for grazing by mission cattle. During the Mexican Republic era, the hills were used as spillover grazing from such surrounding Mexican ranchos as Santa Ana del Chino and Rancho La Sierra (Yorba). After Mexico ceded California to the United States it was, and still is, a swamp and subject to flooding annually. Most historical dwellings were demolished in the rush to develop the modern city. A local state monument is present in the grass lawn area of the local fire department. Casa Colina, a well-known rehabilitation center now situated in Pomona California, began as a tubercular clinic in the Los Serranos sector.
This land was sold to Richard Gird, the founder of nearby Chino subdivision and from which the town of Chino sprung in 1910. With the building of the Carbon Canyon Mineral Springs in the modern-day Sleepy Hollow region of the city and the new Los Serranos Country Club in Los Serranos, Chino Hills, California, the area became a destination for both Los Angeles tourists and bootleggers during the prohibition because of its isolation. For the same reason, Sleepy Hollow became a destination for hippies and artists during the 1960s. During the late 1980s, an incorporation effort began and in 1991, the city was incorporated with a population of 42,000.
Development -&nbsp; Due to its topography of rolling hills, Chino Hills was primarily rural prior to the mid-1970s; most land was utilized for&nbsp;equestrian&nbsp;purposes and for&nbsp;dairies, except for the multi-use purposes of the State of California, promoting jobs for the community through&nbsp;day labor&nbsp;from the Chino Institute for Men on Central Avenue. Rapid and extensive housing developments followed throughout the 1980s and early 1990s, only slowing down in recent years. Most neighborhoods are arranged in a village-type format with strategically placed shopping centers and parks designed to be within walking distance of nearby homes.
Chino Hills is home to the Vellano Country Club, a private golf course and housing development designed by golf champion Greg Norman, his first project in the Greater Los Angeles area.
Chino Hills also includes the developed golf course development neighborhood of Los Serranos. Other large master-planned subdivisions without amenities include Woodview/Village Crossing, Gordon Ranch, LaBand Village, Butterfield Ranch, Rolling Ridge, Fairfield Ranch, and Payne Ranch.
Chino Hills earthquake Main article:&nbsp;2008 Chino Hills earthquake On July 29, 2008, a 5.4 magnitude&nbsp;earthquake&nbsp;occurred at approximately 11:42:15 am&nbsp;PDT&nbsp;(18:42:15&nbsp;UTC). Some incidents of damage were reported, but no fatalities or severe injuries occurred as a result. The earthquake was felt as far south as San Diego and as far north as Las Vegas. The quake was reported to have interrupted a taping of the show&nbsp;Judge Judy, as well as a first-day taping of the new show Judge Penny. The epicenter was located in the southeast portion of the&nbsp;Yorba Linda Fault.
Recent -&nbsp; Chino Hills was ranked 22nd in Money magazine's "Best places to live 2012." It is also the 5th highest income place in the United States (with population 65,000 to 250,000) and was ranked as the 9th safest city in the United States in 2011 by the FBI., and 6th safest city in the U.S. overall in 2016, also according to FBI crime data. Chino Hills is a part of the Chino Valley.
Chino Hills' reputation is known in the national arena as well, as it was featured on the list of 57 of America's hottest towns in the January 2004 issue of Money magazine. Chino Hills was ranked 3rd on the list of "best places in the west with a population under 100,000." The magazine reviewed a decade of data for communities with above average population growth, income, and home prices "to see where people were most willing to devote a high multiple of their annual income to live happily ever after."

Chino Hills

The area that is now Ontario was part of the lands used for hunting and foraging by the semi-nomadic Tongva (Gabriele&ntilde;o) Native Americans, who were known to roam as far south as the western San Bernardino Mountains. At the time of Mexican and later of American settlement, active Native American settlements were scattered across the entire valley. Remains of a Serrano village were discovered in the neighboring foothills of the present-day city of Claremont.
Juan Bautista de Anza is said to have passed through the area on his 1774 expedition, and to this day a city park and a middle school bear his name. Following the 1819 establishment of San Bernardino Asistencia, which may have served as an outpost of the San Gabriel mission, it became part of a large, vaguely identified area called "San Antonio".
In 1826, Jedediah Smith passed through what is now Upland on the first overland journey to the West coast of North America via the National Old Trails Road (present-day Foothill Blvd).
The 1834 secularization of California land holdings resulted in the land's transferral to private hands. In 1881, the Chaffey brothers, George and William, purchased the land (which at that time also included the present-day city of Upland) and the water rights to it. They engineered a drainage system channeling water from the foothills of Mount San Antonio (colloquially known as "Mount Baldy") down to the flatter lands below that performed the dual functions of allowing farmers to water their crops and preventing the floods that periodically afflict them. They also created the main thoroughfare of Euclid Avenue (California Highway 83), with its distinctive wide lanes and grassy median. The new "Model Colony" (called so because it offered the perfect balance between agriculture and the urban comforts of schools, churches, and commerce) was originally conceived as a dry town, early deeds containing clauses forbidding the manufacture or sale of alcoholic beverages within the town. The two named the town "Ontario" in honor of the province of Ontario in Canada, where they were born.
Ontario attracted farmers (primarily citrus) and ailing Easterners seeking a drier climate. To impress visitors and potential settlers with the "abundance" of water in Ontario, a fountain was placed at the Southern Pacific railway station. It was turned on when passenger trains were approaching and frugally turned off again after their departure. The original "Chaffey fountain", a simple spigot surrounded by a ring of white stones, was later replaced by the more ornate "Frankish Fountain", an Art Nouveau creation now located outside the Ontario Museum of History and Art.
Agriculture was vital to the early economy, and many street names recall this legacy. The Sunkist plant remains as a living vestige of the citrus era. The Chaffey brothers left to found the settlements of Mildura, Australia and Renmark, Australia, which met with varying success. Charles Frankish continued their work at Ontario.
Mining engineer John Tays refined the design of the novel "mule car", used from 1887 for public transportation on Euclid Avenue to 24th Street. At that point, the two mules were loaded onto a platform at the rear of the car and allowed to ride, as gravity propelled the trolley back down the avenue to the downtown Ontario terminus. Soon replaced by an electric streetcar, the mule car is commemorated by a replica in an enclosure south of C Street on the Euclid Avenue median.
Ontario was incorporated as a city in 1891, and North Ontario broke away in 1906, calling itself Upland. Ontario grew at an astronomical rate, increasing 10 times in the next half a century. The population of 20,000 in the 1960s again grew 10 times more by the year 2007. Ontario was viewed as an "Iowa under Palm trees", with a solid Midwestern/Mid-American foundation, but it had a large German and Swiss community. Tens of thousands of European immigrants came to work in agriculture, and in the early 1900s the first Filipinos and Japanese farm laborers arrived, later to display nursery ownership skills.
Ontario has over two centuries of&nbsp;Hispanic&nbsp;residents, starting from the&nbsp;Californio&nbsp;period of Spanish colonial and Mexican rule in the 1840s. However, the first wave of Mexican settlers was in the 1880s brought as workers in the railroad industry (see&nbsp;traquero) and another wave from the&nbsp;Mexican Revolution&nbsp;of the 1910s. Mexican Americans resided in the city's poorer central side facing&nbsp;State Route 60&nbsp;and&nbsp;Chino.

Ontario

Before 1954 -&nbsp; The Eastvale region was part of the homeland of the indigenous Tongva people for about 8,000 years.
Recorded history of land in the far western side of present-day Riverside County and north of the Santa Ana River begins in 1838, when Mexican Governor Juan Alvarado, of the Alta California territory, granted Rancho Jurupa (some 48 square miles) to Juan Bandini. The city of Eastvale now occupies approximately the westernmost one-quarter of former Rancho Jurupa land grant. The Mexican&ndash;American War between the United States and Mexico ended in 1848 with the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, by which Mexico ceded Alta California and much other Southwestern land to the US. Two years later, on September 9, 1850, California became a U.S. state.
For 65 years, between 1889 and 1954, the Fuller family owned about 6 square miles of ranch land on the north side of the Santa Ana River. Almost half of present-day Eastvale, between Schleisman Road and the river, was included within the Fuller ranch&rsquo;s boundaries.
Eastvale, often spelled with two words as "East Vale" in early days, was an elementary school district in Riverside County for more than 50 years, from County formation in 1893 until 1947 when the district was merged with Corona and Norco schools.
Recent history - Once a rural area, Eastvale was predominantly dairy farms and agricultural until the late 1990s. At that time, the area started to suburbanize to accommodate the influx of people coming from Orange and Los Angeles counties seeking more affordable housing. Eastvale was particularly hit hard by the United States housing bubble that burst in the late 2000s. A large portion of the communities' homes were sold during the early and mid-2000s at highly inflated prices fueled by the subprime mortgage industry. In June 2006, the median home in Eastvale was valued at $601,000 and had drastically fallen to $304,000 by June 2009 according to Zillow, representing a 50% decrease in home values over a span of three years.
Incorporation effort -&nbsp; Eastvale was one of several unincorporated areas of Riverside County that had strong community support for city incorporation. The passage of AB 1602 in the mid-2000s, a state bill that adds funds from vehicle license fees, made it easier for unincorporated areas to attain cityhood. In 2008, the communities of Menifee, Sun City and Quail Valley merged and incorporated as the City of Menifee. The law also brought renewed interest in incorporation efforts for Mira Loma and Jurupa Valley (Mira Loma, Pedley, Glen Avon, Sunnyslope, and Rubidoux).
The community of Eastvale actively attempted to incorporate from the mid-2000s through 2010. The incorporation effort was being led by the Eastvale Incorporation Committee. Other groups were also proponents of Eastvale cityhood, such as the Yes on Eastvale Cityhood Committee.
The incorporation effort was opposed by the Not NOW Eastvale group that was co-chaired by one of the 18 City Council candidates as well as other groups. These groups feared that the city had not developed a strong enough tax base to sustain itself as a city and all the responsibilities that come along with incorporation largely due to the dependence on state Vehicle License Fees (VLFs) for more than one third of the then proposed city's revenue. Others contested that the services provided by Riverside County, such as police and fire, were sufficient and another layer of government was not needed. Many were not opposed to incorporation but rather to the timing of the incorporation effort.
The Eastvale Incorporation Committee successfully gathered enough signatures to qualify for the June 8, 2010. "Measure A" was placed on the ballot deciding incorporation. &ldquo;Measure B&rdquo; would decide how the city council would be elected: at large, by district, or from district. Measure A passed with 65.8% of voters approving incorporation. Eastvale officially incorporated on October 1, 2010. Voters also decided that the city council would be elected at large. Eastvale's first city council members were Ike Bootsma, Jeff DeGrandpre, Kelly Howell, Adam Rush, and Ric Welch. The council selected Adam Rush as Eastvale's first mayor.

Hacienda Heights&nbsp;is an&nbsp;unincorporated&nbsp;suburban community&nbsp;and&nbsp;census-designated place&nbsp;in&nbsp;Los Angeles County,&nbsp;California,&nbsp;United States. As of the 2010 census, the community had a total population of 54,038, up from 53,122 at the 2000 census. Hacienda Heights is the second largest&nbsp;census designated place&nbsp;in&nbsp;Los Angeles County&nbsp;by area and the county's second largest CDP by&nbsp;population.
During Spanish rule, Hacienda Heights was a part of Rancho La Puente, which was operated by the nearby Mission San Gabriel Arc&aacute;ngel in San Gabriel. The Rancho was eventually acquired by John A. Rowland and William Workman in 1845 via a Mexican land grant, and eventually acquired by Elias "Lucky" Baldwin. In 1912, his descendant, Anita Baldwin, sold the property to Edwin Hart and Jet Torrance. The pair subdivided the area and named it North Whittier Heights, which became known for avocado, citrus and walnut orchards, in 1913. However, from the Great Depression era to the early 1940s, citrus growing became unprofitable because of pests and diseases, setting the impetus for the area's transformation into a suburb.
Accelerating in the 1950s, suburban residential development transformed Hacienda Heights into a residential or bedroom community. In 1961, the Hacienda Heights Branch of the Los Angeles County Public Library opened. The following year, in 1961, the area was renamed Hacienda Heights. In 1964, the local newspaper, the Hacienda Heights Highlander, was established.

Carmen was recommended by my close friend.  She met with my parents who are in their eighties as it was time to sell their home of 46 years. Our house was in a trust and the process was conducted long distance between Southern California and Northern California.  Carmen made this process as smooth  as possible.  She knowledge and talents like attention to detail, patience, and transparency are amazing.  Most importantly, my parents and I could put our full trust in her. My parents kept saying how comfortable Carmen made them feel.  Thank you for all your tireless effort!

Carmen is really sweet and nice.  She is also really professional.  She helped us to find the house in Eastvale.  As a first time buyer, we were nervous, but Carmen had been always being super helpful.  She helped me for negotiation, preparation for the paper work.  She is efficient and  hard-working.  I will highly recommend her because she is the best!

Carmen is very patient and knowledgeable. She explained all the details carefully to us. We are very happy to have her to be our agent for our first house.

Carmen is very professional, warm, friendly and patient.  She's excellent in detail and willing to provide extra information to satisfy my needs.  She helps us to find a reliable painter, a roofer, and a landscaper to fix-up our property after the transaction.  She even help us to find a gardener  who has been doing a wonderful job on our yards. 
If you are looking for a home, or wanting to sell a house, I highly recommend Carmen Shiau to you without any hesitation.

She was very informative, and displayed high knowledge for the city and its surrounding areas. Always kept in contact with us, or answered any questions we had. We had a situation, where the sellers were not accepting our offer for the house, but through Carmens persistent and dedication, we were  able to buy the house that we wanted!

I have met a number of Realtors in my lifetime but Carmen is the best among them. She is very knowledgeable and highly skilled with what she do. She is very supportive and leads and guides you every step of the way. She is very good negotiator and updates you all the time with what is happening.  She is an expertise with her profession. What i like the most is that she is very organize and honest. I will highly recommend her.

She was the intermediary between us and the landlord.  Carmen was very friendly, knowledgeable, and awesome with follow-ups.
