Beverly Hillsis a city in Los Angeles County, California.Located within 5.71 square miles (14.8km2), and surrounded by the cities of Los Angeles and West Hollywood, it has a population of 32,701 according to the 2020 census.

The city is home to many celebrities, luxury hotels, and the Rodeo Driveshopping district.

Originally a Mexican ranch where lima beanswere grown, Beverly Hills was incorporatedin 1914 by a group of investors who had failed to find oil, but found water instead and eventually decided to develop it into a town.

Gaspar de Portolaarrived in the area that would later become Beverly Hills on August 3, 1769, traveling along native trails which followed the present-day route of Wilshire Boulevard. The area was settled by Maria Rita Quinteros de Valdez and her husband in 1828.They called their 4,500 acres (18km2) of property the Rancho Rodeo de las Aguas.In 1854, she sold the ranch to Benjamin Davis Wilson(1811–1878) and Henry Hancock (1822–1883).By the 1880s, the ranch had been subdivided into parcels of 75 acres (0.30km2) and was being rapidly bought up by Anglosfrom Los Angeles and the East coast.

Henry Hammel and Andrew H. Denkeracquired most of it and used it for farming lima beans.At this point, the area was known as the Hammel and Denker Ranch.By 1888, they were planning to build a town called Morocco on their holdings.

In 1900, Burton E. Green, Charles A. Canfield, Max Whittier, Frank H. Buck, Henry E. Huntington, William G. Kerckhoff, William F. Herrin,W.S. Porter and Frank H. Balch formed the Amalgamated Oil Company, bought the Hammel and Denker ranch, and began looking for oil.They did not find enough to exploit commercially by the standards of the time, though.In 1906, therefore, they reorganized as the Rodeo Land and Water Company, renamed the property \"Beverly Hills,\" subdivided it, and began selling lots.The development was named \"Beverly Hills\" after Beverly Farms in Beverly, Massachusettsand because of the hills in the area.Source Wikipedia
