The changes are hard to believe. On April 24, 1956, Dairy Valley was officially incorporated. It was named for the 400-plus dairies, 100,000 cows and 106,000 chickens which were found within Dairy Valley's limits. Yes, cows outnumbered the City's 3,439 residents by 29 to 1, while the chickens 30 to 1 in terms of total amounts of chickens. That's quite remarkable when you try to wrap your head around it.
Dairy Valley Egg Farms, owned and operated by Walter Marlowe, was given the first business license for the new city.
Dairy Valley voted to become a chartered city in the state of California in 1956. As land values and property taxes in California rose in the early 1960s, agriculture became increasingly unprofitable, and development pressures rose.
In a special election held on July 16, 1963, the citizens of Dairy Valley voted to permit large-scale residential development. As a reflection of its newly planned suburban orientation, the City's name formally changed to on January 10, 1967. It was renamed to "Cerritos" after the nearby Spanish land grant Rancho Los Cerritos, which figured prominently in the region.
Today, there is a very diverse community of 50,000 that call the city home. Cerritos has attracted a large number of individuals with backgrounds ranging from Filipino, Korean, Taiwanese, Indian, and Chinese immigrant families.
Cerritos was one of the first cities in Los Angeles County to develop large-scale retail zones. The city build the Los Cerritos Center and the world famous Cerritos Auto Square, home to vehicle brands of all shapes and sizes, and achieved phenomenal success after their completion.
There are two major highways/freeways that occupy the surrounding area - the 91 and 605 freeways. That means that there are a plethora of cars buzzing about all the time; the chances of accident and personal injury are very high here. And that is why you need to hire the top lawyer for the city of Cerritos, Gary K. Walch.
