Long Beach, California has 17 historic districts and the largest is California Heights. This area is located north of Signal Hill and south of Bixby Knolls.
California Heights was once part of Rancho Los Cerritos in the early 1920s when it was used mostly as grazing land. When oil was discovered on Signal Hill, this land was subdivided. In 1927 Chateau Thierry was included in this neighborhood and Long Beach provided sidewalks, ornamental lighting, and paved streets for California Heights. Between 1925 and 1927 more houses were built and 250 families moved in. It continued to grow and today you find some of the most beautiful California, Tudor, and Spanish Revival style bungalows.
There are several private education facilities including Cambodian Christian School, Parkridge Private School, St. Anthony High School, Oakwood Academy, and Los Altos Brethren School.
