Woodland Hills, California

Woodland Hills is one of the larger suburban neighborhoods in the City of Los Angeles. It is in west San Fernando Valley and is home to more than 70,000 Angelenos. It covers approximately fifteen square miles and encompasses the following zip codes: 91302, 91303, 01364, 91365, 91367, and 91372.

The area that was to become Woodland Hills was dry and largely unpopulated in 1900, though limited portions of the land were being farmed for citrus, walnuts, and wheat. Water remained a major issue: either there was not enough to support residential development, or too much of it due to flash flooding during the Southland’s torrential rains in winter.

Completion of the Los Angeles Aqueduct in 1913 by William Mulholland solved the shortage of water by building an aqueduct from the Owens Valley to Los Angeles. News of a steady supply of water newly available in the Valley attracted homesteaders from across the United States. During the Depression the population here declined to 75 families, but the town remained on the map. In 1941 the community established its own Chamber of Commerce and renamed itself Woodland Hills, an appropriate moniker considering the many thousands of trees that had matured since being planted throughout the area in the 1920s. Also in the 1940s, Harry Warner developed a horse ranch on the 1,100 acres he purchased. Amidst the postwar housing boom of the sixties and seventies Harry Warner’s ranch was subdivided and sold to become the home of Warner Center, Topanga Plaza, Kaiser Hospital, Rocketdyne, and Litton Industries.
