The city’s mission statement discusses Alhambra’s “family oriented community” with its “desirable neighborhoods,” and that’s just what you’ll find. Single-family residences, both historical and modern, predominate in Alhambra’s landscape, and a City sponsored “Alhambra Beautiful” monthly award competition keeps the properties sparkling and beautifully landscaped. A late 20th Century infusion of multiple-family dwellings – beautifully constructed condominiums, townhouses, and apartments - adds to the mix of superior housing stock. Alhambra also has a large senior population, and senior housing facilities, both private and publicly supported, are widely available throughout the community.
