More About La Habra
Tucked against the Los Angeles County line at the edge of the Puente Hills, La Habra is a friendly, close-knit north Orange County city with deep citrus-grove roots. Here’s what locals love:
- A name with a view. "La Habra" comes from a Spanish word for a gap or opening in the hills, and the city's foothill setting still fits that name.
- La Habra Children's Museum. Housed in the city's historic train depot, it's a hands-on favorite for families and a nice nod to the town's railroad past.
- Hills and open space. The Puente-Chino Hills foothills, including nearby Coyote Hills, offer easy hiking and sweeping views north of town.
- Right in the middle of it all. Disneyland, Knott's Berry Farm and the beaches are all a short trip away, so La Habra works well as a home base.
