Canoga Park, CA

Originally part of a Mexican land grant, Canoga Park was known as Owensmouth as a farming community in the early 20th century. It was one of the earlier suburban areas developed in the San Fernando Valley. The name was changed to Canoga Park in 1931 to reflect the local Indian heritage, specifically referencing the Canoga Mission that was part of the area’s history. Canoga Park is bordered by Woodland Hills on the south, West Hills on the west, Chatsworth on the north, and Winnetka on the east. The neighborhood experiences a typical Southern California Mediterranean climate, with hot summers and mild, wet winters.
