California Living: From the Heart of Maywood to the Heights of Pasadena
Located just seven miles southeast of Downtown LA, Maywood is a unique entity: it is the third smallest incorporated city in LA County, spanning only 1.18 square miles.
It is one of the most densely populated cities in California, known for its vibrant Hispanic heritage and close-knit feel. Approximately 97% of the population is of Hispanic or Latino origin, and Spanish is the primary language spoken in over 85% of homes.
Residents often gather at Maywood Park (home to the Golden State Baseball Association since the 1950s) or explore the local shops along Slauson Avenue .
