 Laguna Hills, CA
​
Laguna Hills refers to the closeness to the Laguna Canyon and the much older Laguna Beach and is located in the Southern areas of Orange County California. The city has influenced newer cities such as Laguna Woods and Laguna Niguel, which are just nearby.

Brief History
The city was developed on one of the major land grants that was designed during the Rancho era. Following the liberation of Mexico from Spain in 1821, individuals who served in the government were rewarded with vast lands for cattle grazing. This area is the present day Laguna Hills.

Integration works started in 1987 and on March 5, 1991. 86% of the inhabitants selected in favor of forming the City of Laguna Hills. On December 20, 1991, Laguna Hills legitimately became a City. Consequent annexations have included the North Laguna Hills (1996) and the "Westside Annexation" (2000) areas.

Demographics
The racial combination of Laguna Hills was 22,045 (72.7%) White (61.7%) Non-Hispanic White), 420 (1.4%) African American, 101 (0.3%) Native American, 3,829 (12.6%) Asian, 58 (0.2%) Pacific Islander, 2,470 (8.1%) from other races, and 1,421 (4.7%) from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race were 6,242 persons (20.6%).

Hotel Laguna
Initially, a wooden structure built in 1888, Hotel Laguna was rebuilt in 1930 in its current Mission Revival style. The hotel has a beautiful rose garden with a gazebo. You can walk through the lobby and view historical photographs, or enjoy a beverage at Ocean View Bar & Grill.

Historic Lifeguard Tower
The area provides a piece of Laguna's history. Located at Main Beach, this historic tower was originally part of a gas station built across the street in 1929. When the station was destroyed, the tower was relocated to its present location and transformed for lifeguard purposes. The present and newly built Lifeguard Headquarters is located at the north end of Main Beach.

Business
All Saturday morning from 8am-12pm, local farmers and purveyors set up shop downtown. They usually sell their fresh goods at the Farmers' Market. You can obtain everything from locally grown vegetables, delicious fruits, beautiful flowers, freshly baked breads and much more. It is situated at the Lumberyard Parking Lot.
