Incorporated in 1903 as a small agricultural town, the beautiful Southern California city of Arcadia celebrated its centennial in 2003. In its 100 years, Arcadia has grown from 350 settlers to over 54,000 full-time residents. These people come from all walks of life and enjoy a balanced quality of life, strong community values and the freedom and efficiency of modern urban life combined to make a recipe for residential success. Arcadia real estate consists of single-family homes, condominiums and townhouses. (more)

While everything you need is right at home, locals appreciate the city’s proximity to the nearby Los Angeles metropolitan area and Orange County, where a wealth of work and leisure opportunities are at their fingertips. Arcadia straddles the 210 Freeway in the eastern San Gabriel Valley with the magnificent San Gabriel Mountains serving as the community’s backdrop. Mature trees and lush native flora also support the area’s renowned scenery. Quality local public and private schools, as well as numerous continued education facilities are easily accessible and educate residents. Many of these students go on to work in one of Arcadia’s several thriving industries or contribute to the area’s growing businesses, which already number around 4,000.

The town’s inhabitants easily travel to and from area jobs, schools and amusements via several different transportation systems. Two bus lines navigate Arcadia’s major streets and the Gold Line provides service to downtown Los Angeles and the heart of Pasadena. Local airports include Los Angeles International, Long Beach and Burbank fields.
