Tucked into the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains about 23 miles east of Downtown Los Angeles, Monrovia has been a real city since 1887, making it one of the oldest incorporated communities in Los Angeles County. Its compact 14 square miles hold a population of just over 36,000, giving it a neighborhood-scale feel that's rare for Southern California. The Metro A Line station connects residents to Pasadena and the broader LA metro without the stress of the freeway, while Interstate 210 keeps drivers well-positioned across the region.
Old Town Monrovia, anchored along Myrtle Avenue, gives the city its strongest sense of identity. Historic storefronts, locally owned coffeehouses, and the long-running Friday Night Family Festival draw the community together week after week. Nearby Monrovia Canyon Park offers trails and open space at the edge of the Angeles National Forest, so nature is never far from daily life.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
