Moving to Whittier? Here is what you can expect once you get to Whittier.

Whittier, California, is located in Los Angeles County, about 12 miles southeast of downtown Los Angeles. Whittier shares a border with East Whittier, Hacienda Heights, La Habra, La Habra Heights, Pico Rivera, Rose Hills, Santa Fe Springs, South Whittier, and West Whittier-Los Nietos.

The population of Whittier is 86,630 people, who have a median age of 36.4. The median household income of its residents is $67,431, and the median property value is $458,500, with a homeownership rate at 57.2 percent. The population of Whittier is 68.2 percent Hispanic, 24.3 percent white, and 4.57 percent Asian.

The seeds of modern Whittier roots were planted in 1868 when Jacob Gerkens, a German immigrant, bought 160 acres of public land for $234 under the Homestead Act. Gerkens built a cabin on the property, which, today, is the Jonathan Bailey House. However, the land did change ownership many times before a group of Quakers purchased 1,259 acres of land in 1887 that included the area that would become Whittier. The group wanted to create a new community in California, and under the name "Pickering Land and Water Development Company," they sold lots of the property.

The town was named after Quaker John Greenleaf Whittier, who was a famous poet, writer, and newspaper editor at the time, though Whittier never even visited the town that bears his name. At the time, it was a farming community that included crops of  barley, beans, cabbage, corn, oats, peanuts, tomatoes, along with citrus groves. In fact, by the 1890s,"Quaker Brand" citrus was a well-known commodity around the world. In addition, Whittier became known as the largest walnut-growing community in America.

In 1887, a railroad spur to Whittier "spurred" a population boom, as Whittier grew exponentially, and the community thrived. When World War II ended, Whittier grew with rapid pace, as orange groves were converted into subdivisions to accommodate the growth. In 1955, the civic center complex was completed, and on March 8, 1955, the Whittier City Council met in its new chambers for the first time.

Whittier not only has a strong sense of history, but is also has a progressive vision for its future, within a dynamic and modern, upscale suburban community. With 14.8 square miles of space, Whittier accommodates 436 professional services, 845 retail stores that include 303 specialty shops and boutiques. There are also more than 200 family restaurants, 37 manufacturing plants, seven hotels and motels, and two car dealerships, which are predominantly located in Uptown Whittier, the Quad shopping mall, and Whittwood Town Center.
