Being a resident of La Mirada for the past 21 years, Neff Park has been one of my favorite local…read moreplaces to visit when I'm looking to get out of the house for a bit and decompress. It's a great place to bring your lunch or sit on the grass and enjoy a good book. The play area was remodeled not long ago and is a great place for kids to play and run around. If you're into visiting historic homes like I am, the Neff Estate is a must visit. Tours are given every third Saturday of the month from 2-4 pm. Tours are free, donations accepted. The George House and Neff Barn are also on site, however they are not part of the tour. During La Mirada's Halloweenfest, the George House is open for viewing and the Neff Barn is turned into a haunted maze. There is a beautiful gazebo on site as well, perfect for special occasion photos.

Big playground and a big field. Came here for a birthday party. It wasn't too crowded. There's…read morepublic restrooms, a basket ball court and a base ball field. Nestled in a residential area it's pretty quaint. I do question the types of kids/ teens that hang out here. I was there for a toddler's birthday party when some teens with skateboards came over and lit a firecracker. They threw it into the baseball field. The loud boom scared the children and they giggled and skated off. Of course there's bad teens everywhere but they rode off into a back opening into the residential area which made me believe they could be residents. Otherwise, a very quaint park.

There are public restrooms available and a dog waste bag station at one of the entrances. There's a lot of tall mature trees to provide shade. The only negative is that there was a lot of dog waste on the grass near the entrance we went through so watch your step when walking. Details: - Operating Hours Monday - Sunday 6:30am to 9:00pm - Restroom Hours Monday - Sunday 7:00am to 8:30pm - 11 acre park - Wood chip playground substrate

I'm going to be honest, I stopped by on my way to the fmr mkt to use their facilities-very clean & well maintained, you'd have to be buzzed in to enter. I like that it has paper towels coz I prefer it over the hand driers. It might be better for the environment but not for my health (unless I know that they actually disinfect those regularly, otherwise it harbors bacteria). The lady at the front was nice. The quiet library is open & airy, perfect for studying or simply perusing books. It has a large children's section with newer computers. It's conducive to learning & broadening our minds. I was probably one of the few kids in junior high (did I just age myself?) & high school who regularly visited the library to borrow books. I was a regularly at the Ivar (Hollywood Branch) Public Library & know that when the Mac desk top first came out-Cerritos Library had a roomful of them (Cerritos tax dollars at work, courtesy of the Cerritos Auto Square & the Cerritos mall). In this area (City Hall), there's an Olympic sized pool by the Senior Center (I think there are a total of 3, one of which has water slides ($25 entrance fee, unless it has changed) Dang, I should move to La Mirada! Another place to consider -ing out!!

It is part of Los Angeles County, but is very close to Orange County. In fact, La Mirada is within an hour to so many attractions in Southern California. Awesome location. Housing is expensive, but that is to be expected because it is part of the L.A. area. Good places to eat in town. Nice people. Will always come back to La Mirada for family and the good memories.

Once you upload the files you want printed and enter your e-mail address, you input it on the computer and pay. One of the employees that came out to help me told me that it'll charge the card $10 at first then correct itself. But on my bank account statement, I didn't see any payments go through initially, and a couple of days later, I was charged the right amount. It is 15 cents per page, convenient, and cheaper than Staples/FedEx. There is also a shelf near the front where they sell books and media for around $1-2 or less. The parking lot is a bit small and was already full a little past noon. It's kind of set up like the La Mirada library, right next to city hall.
