About the City of Claremont

Located 30 miles east of downtown Los Angeles, Claremont is best known for its tree-lined streets, historic buildings, and college campuses. But more than that, Claremont is a vital balanced community that provides a wide range of programs and services for all age groups and preserves a full range of housing opportunities. It supports a variety of thriving commercial and industrial centers and protects the environment while encouraging appropriate development. In short, it respects traditional values while embracing new ideas. Much of what Claremont is today is the direct result of actions taken by the community's founders more than 100 years ago. Trees planted at the turn of the century now compete with nearby mountain peaks for dominance of the local skyline. The Claremont Colleges have become some of the nation's most highly respected educational and cultural institutions. The historic central core remains a vital residential and retail district, one of the last true "downtowns" in the region. And the spirit of Claremont's original "town meeting" form of self-governance lives on in today's active and involved citizenry, citizens who continue to build on the successes of the past in order to ensure an even brighter future.
