Overview
About La Palma
Whether it’s because of the low crime rate, great schools, strong sense of community, or a combination of all that and more, La Palma is considered one of the best places to live in Orange County. With a population of over 15,500 residents, La Palma is a small city but is right on the border of Los Angeles and Orange County, so you aren’t far from the hustle and bustle of the big city.
Known for its amazing schools, La Palma is a great location for families to settle down and plant roots. There are also many green spaces in La Palma for residents to enjoy, Central Park is the largest park, with everything from playgrounds and tennis courts to soccer fields and basketball courts. The Greenbelt is a great place to go for a walk and Eddison Park is a can’t miss for the kids. Many of the parks also host fun events throughout the year like Cinema in the Park, annual Tree Lighting Ceremony, and the Festival of Nations and Parade.

La Palma’s location is one of the most desirable factors of this small but mighty city. It’s close to bigger cities like Anaheim, Fullerton, and Buena Park, and is a short drive to Disneyland, Knott’s Berry Farms, and some amazing beaches. La Palma is also a more affordable option than the bigger cities or the beachside cities, making it a desirable location for many would-be residents.

For Non-California residents, the Franchise Tax Board (FTB) requires property managers to withhold a percentage of income from property owners who live out of state as a pre-tax. payment. Our charge is $50/quarter, which covers submitting these payments on your behalf and your annual tax forms.
