Alhambra Wedding
Alhambra is a city (incorporated on 11 July 1903) located in the western San Gabriel Valley region of Los Angeles County, California which is approx. 8 miles from the downtown Los Angeles civic center. As of the 2000 census, the city had a total population of 85,804. The city's zip codes are 91801 and 91803. Alhambra is named after Washington Irving's book Tales From The Alhambra, not after the Alhambra palace itself. [1] Alhambra was founded as a suburb of Los Angeles in 1903. Its primarily Asian (Chinese and Korean) and white, Midwestern nature throughout the first 60 years of its history is reflected in the fact that even today, most Southern Californians pronounce the middle syllable of the city's name as a homophone with ham, the meat.
Alhambra has existed as an unincorporated city since the mid 1800s. The city high school, Alhambra High School, was established in 1898, five years before the city's incorporation. The Alhambra Fire Department was established three years later, in 1906.
