Among the cities of California, Norwalk stands out for its role as a crossroads in southeastern Los Angeles County. Set in the broad Los Angeles Basin, it developed from an agricultural settlement into a densely urban community shaped by postwar growth and freeway travel. Interstate 5 and Interstate 605 place the city within the wider transport network of Greater Los Angeles. Incorporated in 1957, Norwalk is also home to Cerritos College, a public community college founded in 1955. Its civic character is practical and metropolitan, serving a diverse population in one of the United States’ largest urban regions.
