Homes For Sale In Eagle Rock

Eclectic history and quaint community come together in this diverse and highly sought-after neighborhood.

The History

First established as Eagle Rock City in 1911, the community is named for a large boulder that bears a natural indentation which resembles an Eagle in flight. Eagle Rock saw substantial growth and development during the early part of the 20th century, and was officially annexed to the City of Los Angeles in 1923. Over the years, Eagle Rock has evolved as both an enclave for artists, creatives, intellectuals, and social reformers, as well as a desired neighborhood for young families looking for an eclectic and laid-back community to call home.
