Stanton, beyond the house.

The neighbourhoods

Where Stanton actually breaks down, in the desk's own words.

Full neighbourhood file →

Stanton Town Center

The city's 156-acre Town Center Specific Plan targets the Beach Boulevard civic core between Cerritos and Katella avenues for redevelopment into mixed-use housing over ground-floor retail.

Beach Boulevard Corridor

State Route 39 runs the length of the city as its commercial spine and is the subject of the Caltrans-funded Livable Beach Boulevard Mobility Plan, addressing decades of aging motels and used-car lots.

Rowntree Gardens

The nonprofit continuing-care retirement community on Dale Avenue was founded by Orange County Quakers in 1965 as Quaker Gardens before rebranding in 2015, and remains one of the city's largest employers.

Adventure City

The two-acre family amusement park opened in 1994 as an expansion of the neighboring Hobby City complex; though it markets itself as an Anaheim attraction, the park itself sits inside Stanton's city limits.

Stanton Central Park

The city's flagship park anchors the civic core with a tennis center, sports complex, community garden and a train-themed playground.

Cerritos–Western Rail Corridor

The Pacific Electric Railway's Santa Ana Line, which brought passenger rail through the area in 1905 under the original town name of Benedict, crossed at Cerritos and Western avenues; the abandoned easement is now owned by OCTA.

A day around here

Afternoon

An hour at Stanton Park, between the errands that never show up on a listing sheet.
