BALDWIN PARK, CALIFORNIA OVERVIEW

Baldwin Park, is located in Southern California, in Los Angeles County. It is in the Central San Gabriel Valley. According to the 2022, U.S. Census Bureau, the estimated population is 69,445. Baldwin Park is about 2 miles from West Covina, 20 miles from Los Angeles, 34 miles from Long Beach, about 30 miles from Anaheim, California. Baldwin Park was incorporated as a city in 1956.

The Indigenous residents of the Baldwin Park area were the Tongva Native Americans. also known as the Gabrielino Indians. The Tongva People inhabited approximately a 4000 mile territory in the Greater Los Angeles area. In 1771, Father Junipero Serra founded the San Gabriel Archangel Mission in the Los Angeles area. Baldwin Park currently sits on cattle feeding land that once belonged to the mission which later became part of Rancho Azusa de Dalton and Rancho La Puente.

Baldwin Park was settled in the late 1800s, and was known as Vineland. It changed its name in 1906, to Baldwin Park after a wealthy pioneer and real estate investor Elias J. Baldwin (1875-1909), who apparently owned or claimed more than 40,000 miles of Los Angeles County.

In the 1920s, there was a housing boon in Baldwin Hills. The new homes offered views of Los Angeles and the South Bay. On December 14, 1963, the Baldwin Hills Dam collapsed releasing 250 million gallons of water which damaged thousands of homes in the area and killed five people. The dam collapse was captured live on television by a KTLA helicopter crew. However, Baldwin Hills quickly rebounded and rebuilt their homes.

Baldwin Park is part of the greater Los Angeles area and like most of Southern California it had a population boom after World War II. It has a diverse population. Baldwin Park is a residential community and is centrally located. Many residents commute to work in neighboring cities, including, Los Angeles, Hollywood, Anaheim, and Long Beach.
