RELOCATION GUIDE South Bay Palos Verdes Peninsula & Surrounding Areas

Welcome to the South Bay!

Imagine living among rolling hills, breathing clean air, and enjoying breathtaking city and ocean views, while remaining in close proximity to a major urban and economic center. The Palos Verdes Peninsula is an attractive part of southern California that has been able to retain its old world charm and has kept away rapid commercial and residential growth, unlike most of southern California. This “small town” feel has been made possible by strict zoning codes that prohibit billboards and restrict the growth of unwanted commercial and industrial complexes that would degrade the Peninsula’s natural beauty.

Rancho Palos Verdes, Palos Verdes Estates, Rolling Hills Estates, and Rolling Hills are the four exclusive cities that make up the Peninsula and are home to many schools, places of worship, and an array of entertainment facilities and shopping centers. Despite the fact that there are four cities located on the peninsula, they all have been able to retain a quaint feeling along with a strong sense of community.

This is why the relaxed yet luxurious lifestyle of the Palos Verdes Peninsula has become a world renowned destination for many.

Being located in a semi-rural area in close proximity to the Pacific especially for the outdoor enthusiast. The Peninsula and nearby coastal cities are home to many recreational activities including bicycling, jogging, equestrian activities, sailing, fishing, surfing, scuba diving, ice skating, swimming, and tennis. For those who are interested in cultural activities, conveniently located are Community Theater, Peninsula Symphony, Symphonic Band, Chamber Orchestra of the South Bay, Palos Verdes Community Art Center, and the Community Association of the Peninsula

History of the Palos Verdes Peninsula During the era of California exploration by the Spaniards in the mid 1500’s, the Palos Verdes Peninsula had been on the mind of Spanish explorer Juan Cabrillo. Even though he wrote about this remarkable place in 1542, the Peninsula remained undisturbed by settlers for almost three hundred years. The Gabrielino Indians inhabited the land for centuries, and even today their artifacts are still being discovered and unearthed from the Peninsula.

After centuries of inhabitation of the Gabrielino Indians, Don Dolores Sepulveda received an original land grant in 1827 to Rancho de los Palos Verdes, which translates to “Ranch of The Green Trees”. This land grant, which was approximately 32,000 acres, was awarded by the Governor of Mexico California. For over 35 years, Don Sepulveda transformed this land into a prosperous hacienda which supported thousands of heads of cattle.

After the course of 35 years the Sepulveda family ended up losing much of the land through various mortgage holders to Jotham Bixby of Rancho Los Cerritos. After the acquisition by Bixby, the land was transformed from a hacienda of grazing cattle to a farm for grains and vegetables. The land was leased to Japanese farmers and by 1913, most of it was owned by a group of New York investors.

The land became divided into large estates and one of the investors, Frank Vanderlip, became partnered with real estate promoter E.G. Lewis, who together began the land development process. Vanderlip, the founding father of the Peninsula, was responsible for the first homes appearing in 1924 and the gradual development of the Peninsula over the next fifty years.

Communities of the Peninsula Palos Verdes Estates

Rancho Palos Verdes

Palos Verdes Estates, located on the western side of the Peninsula was incorporated in 1939.

Approximately 13,700 residents reside in this city and enjoy remarkable views of the Pacific Ocean and Los Angeles basin. Palos Verdes Estates offers activities that range from recreation sports such as hiking and golf to shopping at the two local commercial areas. Also located within city limits are many churches and a library. The city’s layout was designed by the Olmstead brothers, sons of Frederick Law Olmstead Sr., who designed New York City’s Central Park.

In this layout, 849 acres were designated as permanent parkland, so many of the properties enjoy unobstructed views all around.

Like Palos Verdes Estates, Rancho Palos Verdes is a city that offers ocean and city views.

Even though the approximate population of 42,000 residents makes this city the largest on the Peninsula, Rancho Palos Verdes remains a very desirable place to live. Along with being the most populated city, its incorporation in 1973 makes it the youngest one.

Within city limits are a number of shopping centers including the Golden Cove Shopping Center and the large commercial strip along Western Avenue. Rancho Palos Verdes is also home to golf courses including the Ocean Trails by Trump National Golf Club, Terranea Resort, and Los Verdes Golf Courses.

Located on the Peninsula’s southwest side, the city is home to many quiet coves and beaches protected by steep cliffs.

Rolling Hills Estates

Rolling Hills

Situated on the northern side of the Peninsula, Rolling Hills Estates is home to approximately 8,000 residents. Along with hilly terrain lined with homes, the city has more than 25 miles of scenic trails and six parks. For those who have shopping on their minds, Rolling Hills Estates is home to the mile-long Peninsula Center shopping area which includes open-air shopping plazas featuring a state-of-the-art movie theater, an ice rink, specialty restaurants, namebrand retailers, and local merchants.

Contrary to Rancho Palos Verdes, Rolling Hills is the least populated and oldest city on the Peninsula. Incepted in 1936, the city is a private gated community of approximately 2,000 residents situated on 1,889 acres in the center of the Peninsula.

Major characteristics of Rolling Hills are the one story ranch style homes and equestrian based lifestyles present throughout. In addition to being a private gated community with three gated and guarded entrances, there is no commerce or industry.

Hermosa Beach Nestled just north of the Palos Verdes Peninsula along the Southern California coastline lies the quaint beach community of Hermosa Beach. In addition to convenient beach proximity and a variety of entertainment options, prospective residents get to choose from a plethora of living arrangements that range from ocean front homes on “The Strand” to charming bungalows to multilevel ocean-view homes on the hills.

Just like many of the Southern California coastal cities, Hermosa Beach has become a destination for water lovers. This magnificent coastal city offers a setting that is ideal for dining, entertainment, and pure relaxation. For those interested in conducting business, residing, or visiting Hermosa Beach, the city website at www.hermosabch.org offers an abundance of pertinent information.

Redondo Beach Redondo Beach is a classic Southern California beach community located between the Palos Verdes Peninsula and Hermosa Beach. Like the other South Bay beach communities, Redondo Beach enjoys the benefits of being part of the Los Angeles metropolitan area while retaining the feeling of a small suburban beach community.

As a full service city, Redondo Beach offers two public libraries, a performing arts center, many parks, and facilities catering towards boaters and beach goers. For a more comprehensive description and list of services in Redondo Beach, please visit the city’s website at www.redondo.org.

Manhattan Beach Located just about twenty miles southwest of Los Angeles, Manhattan Beach is a prime spot for residents, business owners and tourists.

Lomita Located within twenty miles south of Los Angeles five miles from the Pacific Ocean, the city of Lomita has had a rich history that included ranching and farming. Lomita, or Spanish for “little hills,” was originally a cattle ranch owned by the Sepulveda family. Over time the land was sold off and eventually ended up in the hands of W.I. Hollingsworth Company in 1907. The intent was to build a Dunkard colony for the Los Angeles area. Two decades later, the population slowly grew, and property values boomed due to the discovery of oil. Lots that had originally been purchased for $300 to $400 sold for as much as $35,000.

As the 1930’s came around, farming became a major industry for the area and Lomita became known as the “Celery Capital of the World.” On June 30, 1964, Lomita was incorporated as a city. Despite Lomita becoming a city, it still continues to maintain its rustic small town feel. The website www.lomita.com/cityhall provides additional information about the city.

San Pedro Located on the southwestern end of the Palos Verdes Peninsula, San Pedro has become a significant part of the Los Angeles area for several reasons. Even though San Pedro is part of the city of Los Angeles, it has been able to develop its own character which gives the feeling of being its own city. Being strategically located right on the Pacific Ocean and Los Angeles Harbor makes it a major port station for Los Angeles. Just to the south lies Long Beach, which serves as another major port for the city. In addition to industry, San Pedro has become popular for visitors with the many activities available.

Water activities include diving, jet skiing, sport fishing, sailing, swimming, and windsurfing. With the harbor providing refuge for many types of boats, deep water sport fishing and diving opportunities are convenient and popular.
