La Verne Living

With the rugged backdrop of the San Gabriel Mountains, the city of La Verne provides residents and visitors a glimpse of the past in the midst of contemporary Southern California living. It is a well-balanced community with a good mix of residential, commercial and industrial features.

Paper Pak Products, a manufacturer of recycled paper products for hospital and institutional use, is one of La Verne's major private employers. Originally occupying a former citrus packinghouse, Paper Pak outgrew its facility in 1992 and faced the choice of leaving La Verne or demolishing the unreinforced masonry buildings damaged from two earthquakes. Paper Pak worked with the city to develop a one-of-a-kind oral history program documenting La Verne's participation in the 70 years of citri-culture in Southern California's citrus belt. The newly constructed buildings feature two public art commissions – a full color citrus crate mural from labels once packaged at the site and a bas relief citrus component visible to passersbys on the adjoining Metrolink commuter line. The project was awarded recognition by the Los Angeles Section of the California Chapter of the American Planning Association in 1995.

Sierra La Verne Country Club and Golf Course occupies 111 acres in north La Verne. This private enterprise provides golf in an attractive foothill setting and hosts a number of locally organized golf tournaments.

Foothill Boulevard, part of Historic Route 66, is the major east-west corridor linking La Verne to the San Gabriel Valley and Los Angeles to the west and the Inland Empire to the east.

The area that is now La Verne was for centuries the home of Native Americans and many "Indian" artifacts have since been discovered by archeologists. A collection of such artifacts discovered locally is on display in City Hall.
