Bradbury is a small city in the San Gabriel Valley region of Los Angeles County, California. It sits in the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains near the Angeles National Forest and is bordered by Monrovia and Duarte. As of the 2020 census, the population was 921. The city has three main areas: the gated Bradbury Estates with 5-acre lots, Woodlyn Lane with 2-acre lots, and a non-gated area with smaller properties. Many parts of Bradbury are zoned for horses, and several horse ranches still operate today.
Bradbury was founded in 1881 by Lewis L. Bradbury on land from Rancho Azusa de Duarte. In 1912, his daughter Minerva and her husband Isaac Polk built Chateau Bradbury, a large mansion on the property. The city was incorporated on August 22, 1957, the same day as neighboring Duarte, to avoid being annexed. Bradbury and Duarte still share close ties, including the Duarte Unified School District, ZIP code 91008, and joint public services like law enforcement and fire protection.
