The City of Lancaster provides residents the best living situation possible. From the temperate weather and beautiful flowers to the low cost of living and access to big city amenities, residents can enjoy a close-knit community without excitement.

Within a few hours, residents can be right outside the Hollywood Sign, Disneyland, and Universal Studios. 

What is the history of Lancaster?

The completion of the Southern Pacific Railroad gave birth to Lancaster in 1876. The location provided railroad workers a place to easily access pure water between San Francisco and Los Angeles. The Western Hotel was built shortly thereafter, and, by 1890, Lancaster was quickly becoming prosperous. Steady growth began in the 1930s and has continued since then with no end in sight. It wasn’t until 1977 that Lancaster separated itself from Los Angeles Country and began to self-govern.
