About location

Norwalk occupies a low-lying stretch of the Los Angeles Basin in southeastern Los Angeles County. The San Gabriel River flows just east of the city, while Interstate 5 crosses its built-up core and links the area with central Los Angeles and Orange County. The community traces its origins to a settlement established by Gilbert Sproul in 1874 and incorporated as a city in 1957. Hargitt House, an 1891 Victorian residence, preserves a link to the farming community that predated suburban growth. Today, residential neighborhoods, commercial corridors and major transport routes reflect Norwalk’s role within the wider Los Angeles metropolitan area. The Norwalk/Santa Fe Springs station provides Metrolink rail connections across this intensely urban part of the basin.

California occupies a long Pacific coastal belt in the United States. Its terrain ranges from the Sierra Nevada and the fertile Central Valley to deserts in the southeast and the rugged shores of the Pacific Ocean. The state includes both Mount Whitney, the highest point in the contiguous United States, and extensive protected lands such as Yosemite National Park. California’s cities have exerted worldwide influence through film, technology, agriculture, and music; Hollywood remains an enduring symbol of the American screen industry. Its scale means climates and local character can change dramatically from one county to the next. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of California.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
