A destination of its own, Norwalk is alive with community places and activities such as baseball centers, fairs, street markets, and more.

Norwalk’s residential areas are predominantly occupied by single-family and multi-family homes designed and built by the Orange County and Los Angeles County’s most prestigious residential general contractors. Their building expertise, craftsmanship, and command over the newest building technology turn architectural concepts into reality and contribute greatly to making Norwalk an ideal place to raise a family.
