1952 Map of La Habra

About this map

La Habra and the surrounding orange and oil country are captured here just as post-war suburbanization began to accelerate across the Los Angeles and Orange County line. The landscape is a distinct blend of agricultural heritage and industrial extraction, where extensive networks of oil wells dot the Puente Hills and Coyote Hills, standing alongside established estates like Murphy Ranch and Sunny Hills Ranch. The central corridor is defined by the Pacific Electric and Union Pacific Railroad lines, which supported the citrus and petroleum economies of Brea and Fullerton.
