Around La Mirada
The neighbourhoods, the daily rhythm and the drive to everywhere else — the part of a home search a listing sheet never covers.
See homes near here →The desk is building a real map of La Mirada — outdoors, local flavor, the commute and daily errands — rather than printing a generic list.
Places from OpenStreetMap, September 10. © OpenStreetMap contributors. Distances are straight-line from the city centre, not drive times.
Where La Mirada actually breaks down, in the desk's own words.
Full neighbourhood file →The 10-acre former Neff Estate, with three buildings surviving from Andrew McNally's original Windermere Ranch, was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.
The eastern residential section of the city, closest to the Orange County line and the 5 Freeway corridor.
The evangelical Christian university relocated here in 1959 onto the former McNally Junior High School site, which also hosted La Mirada's first city council meeting; its campus olive grove is the last contiguous stand of the trees that once defined the area's economy.
A family-operated cemetery on Rosecrans Avenue recognized locally as the first business established in La Mirada.
Bordering the La Mirada Golf Course, an 18-hole regulation course on Alicante Road with rolling hills and a lake built into the layout.
Named for Valley View Farms, worked by Cornelius and Florence Van Dam from 1953 to 1998 as one of the last working farms inside city limits before redevelopment.
Ordinary life in La Mirada, the way it actually runs — not a highlight reel.
Coffee at Blackstone Cafe, then whatever the day actually needs.
An hour at La Mirada Community Regional Park, between the errands that never show up on a listing sheet.
Dinner at Chuck E. Cheese, then a short drive back to whichever neighbourhood you call home.
