Diamond Bar, California

Introduction to Diamond Bar, California

The California City of Diamond Bar, located among the meandering hills and valleys of Brea Canyon in Los Angeles County, sits about 27 miles east of Los Angeles. Situated at the junction of California State Highways 57 and 60 (also known as the Orange and Pomona Freeways, respectively), the city is within an hour of three airports: Ontario International, John Wayne, and Los Angeles International. Nearby communities include Walnut (to the north), Pomona (to the east), Yorba Linda (to the south), and Rowland Heights (to the west).

The area now comprising Diamond Bar was originally part of a Mexican land grant known as Rancho Los Nogales ("Ranch of the Walnut Trees"). The ranch changed hands many times before being bought in 1918 by Frederich E. Lewis, who registered a branding iron with the California Department of Agriculture which featured a diamond over a bar, and named his property the Diamond Bar Ranch. There was minimal change to the Ranch until 1956, when the Transamerica Corporation acquired it for the purpose of developing a master-planned community. The first model homes were built in 1960, starting a development boom which has lasted to the present day. Although the original master plan was scrapped after Transamerica Corporation divested itself of all its real estate ventures in the 1970s and 1980s, other developers moved in to fill the void. In 1989, the City of Diamond Bar was incorporated.

Interesting Facts and Statistics:

Although adults aged 26 or older were less likely to be current drug users than teens aged 12 to 17 or young adults aged 18 to 25 (6.1 vs. 9.8 and 19.8 percent, respectively), there were more drug users aged 26 or older (11.4 million) than in the 12 to 17 year age group (2.5 million) and 18 to 25 year age group (6.5 million) combined.

In 2006, the MLB banned the use of amphetamine, a ban which is enforced through periodic drug-testing.

Hallucinogens were used in the past month by 1.1 million persons aged 12 or older (0.4 percent) in 2008, including 555,000 (0.2 percent) who had used Ecstasy. These estimates are similar to the corresponding estimates for 2007. Current use of LSD remained stable from 2007 to 2008, but past year use of LSD increased from 620,000 to 802,000, a higher number than in 2003, 2004, 2005, and 2007, but lower than the 999,000 past year users in 2002.

The graduates of drug rehab that are deemed to have benefited long term from a successful treatment program are those individuals who can stand on their own feet and live drug-free and productive lives.

Alcohol incidence has increased steadily since 1989. Between 1995 and 1999, the total number of initiates significantly increased from 3.5 million to 5.0 million. Between 1995 and 2000, the number of initiates aged 12 to 17 years significantly increased from 2.2 million to 3.1 million. The average age of initiation has generally decreased since 1965.

Persons aged 12 to 25 accounted for almost 60 percent (57.8 percent) of the total number of persons needing but not receiving treatment for an illegal drug use problem. However, that group represented only 23 percent of the total population aged 12 or older. The percentage of the total accounted for by persons aged 12 to 25 at the State level ranged from 44 percent in the District of Columbia to 72 percent in New Hampshire.
