Housing
Classic 1980s and 1990s tract homes — two-story stucco with two-car garages, small to mid-size yards, and mature street trees. It's the heart of Chino Hills' original master-planned build-out and remains popular for its walkability to parks and schools.
Getting around
Chino Hills Pkwy and Peyton Dr are the main arterials, with quick access to SR-71. Omnitrans buses serve the corridor, but most trips are by car.
A little history
This area formed the backbone of Chino Hills' rapid 1980s growth, when former ranch and grazing land was subdivided into planned family neighborhoods in the years leading up to the city's December 1991 incorporation. Street names like Butterfield Ranch Rd and Payne Ranch Rd still nod to the cattle ranches that once covered these hills.
Living here
This is the classic Chino Hills experience — kids biking to Chino Hills Community Park, Friday nights at Ayala High football games, and a summer calendar built around Concerts in the Park. It's dependable, well-kept, and deeply family-oriented.
Visiting for the first time
Time a visit for a Friday-night summer concert at Chino Hills Community Park, then grab dinner along Chino Hills Pkwy before catching a Big League Dreams game if one's on the schedule.
Park life
Chino Hills Community Park is the true center of gravity here — Concerts in the Park draws lawn chairs and picnic blankets all summer, the Fall Festival & Car Show fills the parking lots each October, and the amphitheater hosts everything from school choir concerts to the city's State of the City address.
The Ayala High effect
Ayala High School's strong academics and athletics shape a lot of home-buying decisions in this pocket. Streets close to campus fill with foot and bike traffic every afternoon, and the surrounding boba shops and taquerias do brisk after-school business.
