Cudahy Overview

Part of the Gateway Cities portion of greater Los Angeles County, Cudahy is a charming small city that remains big on heart. Acting as home to just around 23,000 people, this California locale is an idyllic option for anyone considering a move to the west coast.

What is the history of Cudahy?

Taking its namesake from a meat-packing baron of some reknown, Cudahy was established in 1908 as a bulk land purchase. Resold to new individual owners as attractive 'railroad lots', Cudahy grew in population thanks to an influx of farmers fleeing the dire conditions of the midwest. Fruit trees and gardens thus abound in the fledgling city, and World War II spurned the development of manufacturing plants in the area, including automobile and steel. Economic downturn in the late 1970s led to a shift in city demographics, with many of the industry workers leaving to surrounding job markets. Today, Kmart and other large retail stores account for a majority of the local economy.

How is the weather in Cudahy?

Cudahy apartment residents can enjoy much of the sunshine and warm temperatures that the state of California is known for. Rain is often fleeting, and freezing temps are practically a myth. Summer tends to be hot and pleasant, with highs in the 80s, while winters are mild and comfortable.

How do I get around town?

Given its small size, most living in Cudahy rentals depend on local public transportation for most daily needs. Bicycling is popular in the vicinity as well, and given the mere one-square-mile length of the city limits, walking to work and school is fairly commonplace. Bus service is found with ease, and ride sharing options such as Lyft, not to mention taxis, are also readily available. LAX acts as the major airport in the area, offering numerous domestic and international flights daily, and some of LA's famed subway can also be reached fairly simply from many Cudahy apartments.

What is the Cudahy commute like?

Atlantic Avenue runs through the center of the city and acts as a default 'Main Street', while I-710 runs north-south just east of the Cudahy limits. Given the small scope of the township, traffic in general moves briskly, although greater Los Angeles gridlock is a serious issue for those commuting further away. 

What are the local media outlets?

Most in the city rely on established print news from the 'LA TImes' and a variety of local arts and entertainment periodicals. A wide array of broadcasting options can be found in Cudahy apartments for rent thanks to their proximity to the LA market, and radio leans towards formats such as modern urban, classic rock and even tejano favorites.

Why live in Cudahy, CA?

Offering plenty of amenities and a small town ambiance in the midst of greater Los Angeles convenience, life in a Cudahy apartment is a fantastic way to experience all that California has to offer. From local schools that consistently make the grade to an abundance of local parks and shopping options, apartments for rent in Cudahy remain popular with west coast residents for good cause.

What Cudahy landmarks should I see?

Stop by the LA County Library for some quiet reading among the stacks of literature, or stroll South Broadway's assortment of small theaters and art galleries, both an easy reach from most rentals in Cudahy. South Gate Park is a popular local hotspot, ideal for a picnic or walking the dog, and the Montebello Barnyard Zoo remains a constant hit with old and young alike.

What is there to do around Cudahy?

Get into the swing of things with an outing to Golf-n-Stuff, or enjoy a modern twist on a classic with a visit to the Musuem of Selfies, all just a short jaunt from many apartments for rent in Cudahy. T&A Taco is a constant local favorite, with a large menu and plenty of ice cold beer, while the Sand Gallery offes some truly unique artistic creations by local California residents that might just be perfect for decorating your new Cudahy apartment.

Any annual festivals or Cudahy events to know?

The LA Lotus Festival is a hugely popular affair, complete with a floating lantern parade, and the intimidatingly named California Deathfest gathers some of the loudest live rock bands around. The HerStory Art Show is a yearly collection of works from a wide range of local women artists, and residents of Cudahy apartments can enjoy an ongoing abundance of rotating street fairs throughout the year.

Where are the nearby vacation spots?

Use the proximity of Los Angeles to your advantage by hitting the nightclubs of the Sunset Strip or tour the movie star homes of Hollywod, both just a short drive away from most rentals in Cudahy. Head north to wine country and the Golden Gate Bridge, or just relax on one of California's world famous white sand beaches. And don't forge the Redwood Forest or one of California's numerous camping options as well!

Where is the best place to move in Cudahy?

From spacious 3-bedroom units that are ideal for families and offer easy access to nearby schools and shopping, to professional couples' two-bedroom rentals, complete with onsite gym equipment and swimming pool, the ideal Cudahy apartment for rent is likely out there and waiting to meet you. So don't let another day pass you by without a new West Coast apartment fo your very own. Start your search today, and discover all that a new Cudahy apartment for rent has in store for you!
