Bellflower

Bellflower is a flat, grid laid out city in southeast Los Angeles County that got most of its housing built out fast after World War II, when the aerospace plants nearby needed somewhere for all those new workers to live. That history shows up everywhere in the housing stock, block after block of small ranch style homes from the late 1940s through the 1960s, sitting on lots that are a bit wider than you'll find in some of the denser cities nearby, enough room for a side yard or a decent backyard.

The city has always had a strong equestrian streak that surprises people who don't know the area, with horse properties and riding trails still tucked into certain pockets, particularly toward the eastern side near the Los Angeles River. It's an odd but real contrast to the otherwise suburban, working class feel of most of Bellflower. Bellflower Boulevard runs through as the main commercial spine, lined with the kind of long standing family businesses and strip retail that give the city its practical, no frills character.

People tend to stay in Bellflower because it offers more space for the money than a lot of neighboring cities, and because it's central enough to reach the 91, 605, and 105 freeways without actually living on top of them. It attracts a lot of multigenerational Latino and Filipino families who value that combination of affordability and room to grow.
