About Us

Alhambra's vision of being the premier family-oriented and economically prosperous community in the San Gabriel Valley has led to a favorable combination of housing, business, employment and recreational opportunities.

Alhambra is a city of charming, well-manicured residential neighborhoods and a growing number of businesses. It is situated within a "Sixty Mile Circle" centered on Los Angeles--a dynamic concentration of population, employment, business, industry and finance with two-thirds of the State's 100 largest corporations headquartered within this circle. High quality educational, medical and transportation services abound and Alhambra has some of the region's strongest retail centers, drawing sales from auto dealerships and shopping districts. The renaissance of Downtown Main Street has been a top priority and today there are numerous attractive destinations for persons to shop, dine and be entertained locally. Numerous recreational and sporting venues are also available in the area.
