Pico Rivera is a city located in southeastern Los Angeles County, California, United States. As of the 2000 census, the city had a total population of 63,428.

Pico Rivera (founded in 1784) was incorporated in 1958 from the merger of the long-standing unincorporated communities of Pico (named for Pío Pico, the last Mexican governor of California) and Rivera. Situated on a rich alluvial plain between the Rio Hondo and the San Gabriel River, the area was once predominantly agricultural, but since the 1950s it has been primarily residential. Pico Rivera lies below the Whittier Narrows, making it one of the "Gateway Cities."

The north side of the city is home to the Pico Rivera Sports Arena, where concerts and sports are occasionally held.

A number of good parks dot the landscape, including Rivera Park on Shade Lane, Smith Park on Rosemead and Mines, Pico Park on Beverly Blvd, Rio Vista Park, and Stream Land park at the North end of Durfee Road.

Historical

There was a 157-acre (0.64 km) manufacturing facility located at the corner of Rosemead and Washington boulevards which was owned and operated by the Ford Motor Company. The plant closed in 1980 and was purchased by Northrop Grumman in 1982 for its Advanced Systems Division. Upon the unveiling of the B-2 Spirit bomber in 1988, it was revealed that much of the development for the former black project had in fact occurred at the site. In the early 1990s, the division was renamed the B-2 Division to reflect its most famous product. At its peak, the project employed approximately 13000 workers in Pico Rivera. The site closed and demolished in 2001 and is now a large retail center, anchored by WalMart and Lowes.

Fire protection in Pico Rivera is provided by the Los Angeles County Fire Department with ambulance transport by Care Ambulance Service. The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department provides law enforcement.

Most residents attend schools in the El Rancho Unified School District. Only those in the Montebello Gardens area are in the Montebello Unified School District.
