The completion of a pair of railroads in the late 1800s saw quite a new crowd of people relocate to the city, with official incorporation achieved in 1887. The Pacific Electric was open for business by the turn of the century, adding ease of to travel to LA proper,  and in turn Monrovia rentals boomed. The Monrovia Airport saw construction in 1930, and a number of films were shot along the 35-acre airfield.

How do I get around town?

While most residents of apartments for rent in Monrovia utilize a personal car or truck, the Monrovia Trolley Bus offers additional transportation ease. The Metro Gold Line lite rail is a great option for commuters, and LAX is now typically regarded as the largest commercial airport in the area.

What is the Monrovia commute like?

Interstate 210 is a major roadway in the city limits, as is the famous Route 66, both used by commuters on the daily. The aptly-named Foothill Blvd is a primary street running through the center of town, and tends to move briskly. Still, this is LA County, and sluggish traffic conditions are the norm as opposed to an unfortunate rarity on most days.

What are the local media outlets?

Prints news is delivered by the 'San Gabriel Valley Tribune', with additional local events covered by the 'Monrovia Weekly'. KGEM is the local access television station, although those living in Monrovia apartments can anticipate a good amount of options in that realm thanks to local affiliates of networks like NBC and CBS. Radio is a mix of modern rock, sporting news and Tejano favorites.

Trader Joe's and Naked Juice are both based in the city, with a number of other employers to its credit as well, and the ease of travel to the Los Angeles job market makes it ideal for commuters. Schools in the area consistently make the grade, and add to that some truly eye-catching natural scenery and you have a California destination well worthy of your consideration.

What Monrovia landmarks should I see?

The Krikorian Theater has a long and storied history, and still presents performances and films on a weekly basis. The Upton Sinclair House doubles as a museum, and makes a great visit for Monrovia apartment residents with a thirst for history, while the local library contains almost 200,000 books.

What is there to do around Monrovia?

Hike along the spectacular Hermit's Falls, home to a number of trails and swimming holes, or get floral with a trip to the LA County Botanic Garden, both an easy reach from most rentals in Monrovia. Kid's Empire is an excellent spot to spend a rainy afternoon with the little ones, and the 626 Night Market offers tasty treats for the nightlife crowd.

Head south to the seaside fishing mecca of San Diego, or enjoy the nightlife excitement of Hollywood, both relatively easy drives from Monrovia apartments for rent. San Francisco makes a romantic getaway as well, complete with the Napa Valley wine tours known the world over, and the comedy clubs of Sacramento are a short drive to the north.
