Temple City Overview

Temple City is a city located in Los Angeles, CA. It is considered one of the safest cities to live in California, currently rankingá5th on that list. The city's original name was called the City of Temple after its founder, Walter Temple. Temple city is northeast of downtown Los Angeles, and is located in a cluster of cities at the base of the San Gabriel Mountains. Other cities located in this cluster include Alhambra, Arcadia, San Marino, San Gabriel and Pasadena.á

What is the history of Temple City?

The city was founded in 1923 when land developer Walter P. Temple purchased 285 acres of land.á When he established the city, he envisioned a place where people could live in a community where they could afford to purchaseámoderate-priced homes. He helped the new community grow by petitioning the Pacific Electric Rail Company to extend rail service, integrating the city with Los Angeles and other neighboring communities. This brought inámore merchants and businesses, allowing the population to grow. As a result of this move, it created the legendary Red Car railcar. This was one of the early ways to criss-cross Southern California before the construction of freeways. á
