With its perfect blend of business friendly
atmosphere, residential comforts and urban excitement,
Glendale is truly a city in balance. Located at
the foot of the breathtaking Verdugo Mountains,
Glendale is the third largest city in Los Angeles
County, spanning more than thirty square miles.
Glendale is ethnically diverse and rich in cultural
heritage.
Cosmopolitan Atmosphere
The excitement of urban living permeates Glendale.
Its unique downtown area is surrounded by dramatic
office towers, the four-star Hilton-Glendale and
the nationally recognized Glendale Galleria shopping
center, which serves over 50,000 customers per
day - more than Disneyland.
Within this
seven-block area, Glendale's downtown offers fabulous
restaurants, a colorful array of specialty stores,
an authentic farmer's market, movie theatres, nightclubs
and live-performance venues. The exquisitely restored
landmark Alex Theatre, a 1,500-seat performing
arts center, brings world-famous performers and
productions to Glendale.
A slower, more
intimate pace can be found in any one of Glendale's
many neighborhood business districts. Whether it
is along the tree-lined streets of Montrose, the
quaint landscape of Kenneth Village or the distinctive
features of Adams Square, Glendale also provides
a sense of small-town living.
Education
Glendale is also committed to the education of
its youth. It offers an outstanding educational
system with students consistently outscoring the
local, state and national averages. Glendale Community
College, one of California's largest two-year colleges,
enjoys a statewide reputation for excellence.
Community
Services
For almost every need, the Glendale
community responds. Because of its financially
secure infrastructure, the City enjoys a wide variety
of programs that benefit all its citizens.
Climate
Glendale enjoys a mild climate with an average
high temperature of 77 degrees. The average rainfall
in the City is 17.82 inches per year. The prevailing
daytime wind in Glendale flows from the south,
while the prevailing nighttime wind flows from
the north. During the fall and winter months the
unique Santa Ana wind conditions can affect the
local weather and bring warm dry air from the northeast,
which results in a temperate climate.
Live,
Work or Play
Glendale unites the best
of global sophistication, small-town comfort and
Southern California flair in one city. Though located
conveniently close to Los Angeles nestled in the
foothills, Glendale maintains its individuality,
providing a safe, fulfilling lifestyle for its
residents, and a supportive progressive environment
for its businesses. Glendale is truly a city in
balance.
The City of Glendale is divided
into 34 neighborhoods which are delineated by streets,
washes, and mountain ridges. Each neighborhood
has a unique history and character and as these
neighborhoods developed, they combined to form
the City of Glendale as we know it today. |
