La Puente, Residential city in Los Angeles County, United States.
La Puente stretches across 3.48 square miles of land in the San Gabriel Valley, situated 20 miles east of downtown Los Angeles at 107 meters elevation.
The land where La Puente now stands was originally inhabited by the Tongva people in their village called Awingna before Spanish exploration began in 1769.
The city organizes year-round community events including the Christmas Holiday Parade and Family Friendly Bingo Night to strengthen neighborhood connections.
The Building and Safety Office at 16005 E. Central Avenue operates Monday through Thursday from 7:00 AM to 4:30 PM, serving residents and contractors.
La Puente maintained the largest walnut packing plant worldwide during the 1930s, when the area was covered with fruit and walnut groves.
