Azusa

Azusa runs right up to the base of the San Gabriel Mountains, and that location has shaped it in two distinct ways. Azusa Pacific University sits on the north end of town, bringing a steady flow of students and staff into a city that otherwise feels like a working, blue collar community with deep roots. Downtown still has that old citrus town layout, with a compact grid of streets near the historic Foothill Boulevard corridor, part of the old Route 66 alignment that runs through here.

Housing ranges quite a bit depending on where you are. Closer to downtown and the older sections south of the freeway, you'll find small, modest homes from the 1920s through the 1950s on tighter lots, many originally built for citrus and rock quarry workers. Head north toward the foothills and the lots open up, with newer construction and some larger homes taking advantage of the views and the cooler air coming off the canyons. Rosedale, the newer master planned community near the old rock quarry, has brought a different kind of buyer into the mix entirely, families looking for modern construction without leaving Azusa.

People stay in Azusa because it still feels affordable relative to nearby foothill cities, and because the mountains are right there for hiking and access to the San Gabriel River canyon.
