The City of Monrovia provides a small-town charm in a big way. Nestled at the foot of the San Gabriel Mountains, the town is approximately 23 miles east of Downtown Los Angeles off Interstate 210. Often attracting movie crews, the homey feel and community kindness score high with those who visit.
This Southern California area is host to a number of street fairs, while lazy mornings give rise to vibrant (and often packed!) farmers markets. The Metro Gold Line allows residents to travel with ease at the community station. Longtime locals love their apartments, but sometimes venture outdoors for camping at Monrovia Canyon State Park. The downtown area consists of delicious gourmet restaurants, eclectic coffeehouses, and a community center near South Myrtle Avenue.
