Cypress Real Estate and Relocation Information

Cypress, city in Orange County, is a residential suburb of Long Beach; incorporated 1956. Cypress is the corporate headquarters for several electronics and insurance companies. Light manufacturing and research and development are also important. A large community college, a branch of Forest Lawn cemetery, and Los Alamitos Race Course are here. Formerly a farm center, the community was known as Dairy City until 1956, when it was renamed for its cypress trees. Large-scale residential development took place in the 1960s and 1970s. Industrial development occurred in the 1980s. Today, Cypress is full of great homes and great jobs.  The city is constantly growing, and improving the quality of life for its residents.

Developer AVG Partners, along with members of the Cypress City Council, recently broke ground on a new shopping center at Katella and Siboney in the Los Alamitos Race Track Area. The center will be anchored by 24 Hour Fitness and Office Depot, with Coldstone Creamery, La Salsa, Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf, Red Persimmon and Subway in supporting roles, with more to follow.

This is the first project in what the City plans to be a town center on Katella between Lexington and Walker. The proposed Costco store will be located at the the corner Katella and Walker, and the remaining frontage along Katella will also be developed for retail use.
