Welcome to Duarte
91010
The City of Duarte is a small progressive community located at the base of the picturesque San Gabriel Mountains, approximately 21 miles northeast of Los Angeles. At 6.8 square miles and a population of 21,486, Duarte isn’t the biggest city in the valley. But it just may be the best.
Duarte is a richly diverse community of stable neighborhoods and
friendly neighbors. Lush green foothills, parks, hiking and bike
trails and beautiful new social and recreational gathering places
enhance the livability of the community.
The City of Duarte is also host to a world-renowned cancer
research center and a nationally recognized hospital dedicated to
improving the physical and mental well being of its residents.
The Gabrielino Indians once inhabited the land that is now known
as the City of Duarte. In 1841, the governor of Alta California
granted to ex-Mexican Corporal Andres Duarte and his wife
nearly 7,000 acres of prime land in the upper San Gabriel Valley.
He named the place Rancho Azusa de Duarte.
In 1957, a dedicated group of community members led the fight
for incorporation, and on August 22, 1957, their efforts paid off
with the formation of the City of Duarte and the Duarte Unified
School District. The leadership of the Duarte City Council and
the Duarte Unified School Board helped the previously
fragmented community to come together, set goals and establish
priorities for the newly created City of Duarte.
