Welcome to Villa Park, CA

Villa Park is Orange County's smallest city, but one of its friendliest and most welcoming places to live. The City of Villa Park is in the center of Orange County. It has an area of 2.1 square miles, a population of 6,500 and approximately 1,900 homes, and is almost 99% built out. With the exception of one shopping center, the City is zoned for single family homes, most of which are on half-acre lots. The shopping center includes a grocery store, banks, a pharmacy with a postal substation, a variety of specialty shops and offices, the City Hall and community room, and a branch of the Orange County Public Library.

Villa Park Community

Villa Park is governed by five council members, each elected for four-year terms, who serve without pay and meet on the fourth Tuesday of each month at 7:30 p.m. Residents are encouraged to attend and participate in these meetings and the political life of the City. Council agendas are posted on the bulletin board outside of the City Hall. Villa Park also employs full-time appointed City Managers, a small office staff, and a maintenance crew. Police, fire, legal, and engineering services are contracted for outside of the City. The City offices are open Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.; the telephone number is 998-1500.
Villa Park's tree is the Weeping Fig; the City flower is the Orange Blossom; the City bird is the Hummingbird; and the City motto is "Villa Park, the Hidden Jewel."

There is no city newspaper, but the "Foothill Sentry," a local paper published in Orange Park Acres once a month, includes the Villa Park news and events, and a periodic newsletter from City Hall. Cable TV is available with a public access channel, Channel 3.

Villa Park History

Villa Park was not incorporated until 1962, but the history of the area goes back to around 1860. It was known in its early days as Mountain View. Villa Park came into usage when a post office was located here and there already was a city of Mountain View in northern California.

Villa Park was, for many years, an agricultural area producing, in turn, grapes, walnuts, apricots, and finally, citrus, which was the major crop for about 60 years and is most closely associated with its development. It was the citrus ranchers and their families who molded Villa Park into a vital community and organized its incorporation to save it from what they felt were unwelcome zoning practices from the eastward-moving city of Orange.
These ranchers established the Serrano Water District, which still provides Villa Park's water. (The district office is located on Lincoln Street.) They also founded the Villa Park Orchard's Association, still a thriving business in Orange, although the packing house that was the dominant Villa Park landmark for many years, located west of the shopping center, was torn down in 1983.
