            History

            How La Valencia was built

            The city records 158 homes across thirty-nine acres, built between 1966 and 1971 with a typical size around 2,064 square feet on lots of about a sixth of an acre, on four streets: Date, Elm, Greenleaf and Oakhaven. The lots are generous by later standards, which is the mark of a subdivision laid out when land on the Brea flats was still cheap.

            Date Street keeps the agricultural thread, since dates were among the specialty crops of Southern California's irrigated valleys, and Greenleaf and Oakhaven belong to the same idea. The city's tree inventory counts ninety-five trees inside the boundary, most of them Brisbane box. A little over four acres of the neighborhood fall inside the liquefaction zone the city maps on the valley floor.
