Covering 3.44 square miles with a population of approximately 25,000 residents, South Pasadena is just eight miles northeast of Downtown Los Angeles, bordering the cities of Pasadena and San Marino. It’s best known for its sun-dappled, tree-lined streets, historic California Craftsman homes, excellent public schools, and colorful business district. All of these things combine to maintain the small town atmosphere that makes South Pasadena one of California's most desirable locations.

South Pasadena maintains its own Police and Fire departments, and an award-winning Public Library. With an active Parks and Recreation program, the City's outdoor facilities are valued and highly regarded by South Pasadena’s citizens. Downtown South Pas is designed to cater to the communtiy's desire for open spaces and places to go for active recreation or passive enjoyment of the outdoors.
