Review of South Pasadena, California


South Pasadena,CA
Star Rating - 11/23/2009
Because of the historic nature of the neigborhoods in South Pas, it appears in many films, TV and commercials. Halloween was filmed here, as well as dozens of movies. Picturesque neighborhoods mimic the US Northwest, Midwest and Southwest. Its got a wonderful small-town vibe. Great reataurants, great shops, great cafes, friendly people, and many great walks around town. Or bike. The historic Arroyo neighborhood in South Pasadena (and the adjoining San Pasqual and Garvanza area) was where the Arts & Crafts movement got its start in California back in the early 1900s. The only bridge built by the Greene & Greene bros is here, as are three extant stone and wood stagecoach stations. Many architecturally significant structures throughout the city. Here you will find mansion compounds and tiny cottages and bungalows. Thousands of lovely trees. Lowest crime rate in L.A. County. One of the best school systems in the country. Many artists, scientists and educators make their home in South Pasadena. Here you will find the American Dream.
