Brief History

West Hills is a highly valued and sought after residential and commercial neighborhood in the western San Fernando Valley region of Los Angeles, California – primarily for its luxury real estate and its proximity to other high value, celebrity filled communities (Tarzana, Woodland Hills, Calabasas, Hidden Hills and others). As far as demographics go, the percentage of residents who are 35 and older is among the highest in Los Angeles County but still manages to maintain a nice balance of all ages. Originally, the neighborhood was populated by many of the local Native American tribes and eventually, during the early Spanish and Mexican era, became an important part of the Mission San Fernando Rey de España. In the days of the wild, wild west – West Hills Real Estate was merged with the community of Owensmouth, which was eventually renamed Canoga Park a few decades later. West Hills was established in western Canoga Park and retained its present name in 1987.

Historic landmarks and many city parks are to be found within the community, as are commercial districts, a business district, and religious establishments. Two private high schools are among the 13 schools within West Hills.
