Greetings from the Hawthorne City Council
On behalf of our 89,000 residents we welcome you to Hawthorne, the City of Good Neighbors.
Your new community continues to be the prime location within the dynamic South Bay area market boasting two major freeways, regional retail complexes, excellent schools and a business-friendly city government. The revitalization and investment that is mushrooming throughout the South Bay region is apparent in Hawthorne as new employers and industry begin to replace the aerospace sector as the foundation of our local economy.
We are grateful for the trust you have placed in Hawthorne and stand ready to help you get established and grow with us into the 21st century.
