Eagle Rock is a community located in northeastern Los Angeles, bordered by Glendale on the north and west, Highland Park on the south and Pasadena on the east. The Glendale and Ventura freeways run along the neighborhood’s western and northern edges. Eagle Rock got its name from a massive boulder located in the northern edge of the community that contains an indentation that casts a bird-shaped shadow on the rock at certain times of the day. Eagle Rock is said to have an “any town USA” feeling to it, and thus has been the location for many films, including Top Gun, The Hunt for Red October and the last episode for season two of the television show, The O.C. Eagle Rock is home to Occidental College and the Renaissance Arts Academy, which “is a small music and performing arts school providing an integrated, classical education for middle and high school students from all backgrounds.” The community is host to several annual events, including the Eagle Rock Music Festival and Oktoberfest. It also offers easy access to all of Los Angeles’ major attractions, such as the Rose Bowl Stadium in Pasadena, Universal Studios, Hollywood, Knotts Berry Farm, The Getty Center, Rodeo Drive, Disneyland and much more.

Eagle Rock Weather & Climate

Southern California enjoys a mild year round climate that is classified as Mediterranean. There are two distinct seasonal changes, categorized by the amount of rainfall received - a dry summer and wet winter with modest variation in temperature. In the dry season, a Pacific high-pressure system dominates the weather pattern creating warm and very dry air and a thick marine layer that typically advances inland during the night and burns off to hazy sunshine by midday. Surface pollutants trapped under the marine layer, or fog, create L.A.'s infamous "smog." In winter, the high system is no longer dominant and storms fed by subtropical moisture bring lots of rain into southern California during the months of November through March. Afternoon sea breezes of 10 to 15 mph are common. Strong offshore winds, known as "Santa Anas," though not uncommon, rarely cause damage.
