La Palma was incorporated on October 26, 1955. It was originally incorporated as Dairyland, and was one of three dairy cities in the region (the other two being Dairy Valley in Cerritos and Dairy City in Cypress) but when the dairies moved east in 1965, the name of the community was changed to La Palma
Hawaiian Garden use to be crop city and was public dump. Said city is the smallest city in LA County.
Rossmoor was being developed during the same era as the above citys: Rossmoor Estates and Rossmoor Highland.
Lot of the local residents are burned out from the Cerritos Annual Spring Festival. Same old agenda, nothing new added. Festival is not keeping up with changes and has not drew anything new. Like to see some large car shows, RV camping and some new beside deadly/polluting fireworks.
Without all of the cities being developed out of Dairy Valley, it created great roads leading to and from their cities, which in long run, benefited growth of Cerritos.
