The city of Alhambra sits eight miles east of LA, right in the western San Gabriel Valley area of LA County, California.
The city which was named after “The Tales of Alhambra” by Washington Irving reflects a prominent Spanish influence in its early inception. Today, it is home to many ethnic groups and businesses here have strong connections with international commerce.
Since the 70s and 80s, given the city’s close proximity to the Asian-American dominated Monterey Park, it has attracted East Asian immigrants by the numbers. At present, Alhambra has a thriving Chinese business district.
Bordering Alhambra on the east is San Marino, South Pasadena on the north, and Monterey Park on the south. Quality academic institutions can be found nearby such as Pasadena City College, California State University at Los Angeles, California Institute of Technology, among others, and at a distance, the renowned UCLA (University of California, Los Angeles) and USC (University of Southern California).
