Real Estate Appraisers and Appraisals In
Orange County, City of Fountain Valley
| Incorporated in 1957,
before which it was known as Talbert (also as Gospel Swamps), the name of
Fountain Valley refers to the very high water table in the area. At the time
the name was chosen, it was said that one could merely poke a stick in the
ground and a fountain would come up. Now a classic bedroom community, Fountain
Valley is a safe, middle-class, residential area. It is home to Mile Square
Regional Park, a 640 acre park containing two lakes, three 18-hole golf
courses, playing fields, picnic shelters, and a twenty acre urban nature area
planted with California native plants, a 55 acre recreation center with tennis
courts, basketball courts, racquetball courts, a gymnasium, and the Kingston
Boys & Girls Club; also a community center and a new senior center that
opened in June, 2005. The city also has 18 churches, one Reform synagogue, and
a public library. Fountain Valley has blooming commercial innovations but
little industrial production of its own. The limited agricultural production
consists of several fields of strawberries and which turnaround on a regular
basis making land appraisals frequent. Fountain Valley is home to the national
headquarters of Hyundai Motor Company and the global headquarters of memory
chip manufacturer Kingston Technologies. |
