Dear RYHOA Homeowner,
WELCOME
The Board of Directors of
the Rancho Yorba Homeowners Association would like to extend
a warm welcome to our beautiful community. We are very
fortunate to live in such a culturally diverse, fascinating
area filled with natural wonders and a wide variety of
services and amenities suited for families of all walks of
life. At the crossroads of the Santa Ana Canyon Road
and Imperial Highway, we feel we are at the center of
Anaheim Hills activities. To coin a present day phrase,
“This is where it’s all happening.”
CITY HISTORY
Anaheim is the oldest and second largest city in Orange County.
It was settled by German immigrants in 1857. The
City’s name is a composition of “Ana” from the nearby Santa
Ana river and “heim,” German for home. Anaheim, the
“home by the river” as it was named by the early German
settlers, was once part of a Yorba Spanish Land grant.
The community of Anaheim Hills was once known as the Nohl
Ranch and was used as pasture and grazing land. Over
30 years ago Anaheim Hills was a rural, residential area
with no street lights and a two lane country road.
Imperial Highway did not go beyond Santa Ana Canyon road and
until recently did not go over the hill beyond Nohl Ranch
Road. Anaheim Hills began development with planned
communities in 1972, after the community was annexed by the
City of Anaheim. Rancho Yorba HOA was an early
development of the Yorba family in 1972.
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
New homeowners may have a
number of questions. Some pertain to personal
information about your home (i.e., who pays the water bill,
trash bill electrical bill, etc.). or where is the closest
post office, market, hospital, shopping centers or
restaurants etc.?). Hopefully this welcome package can
answer some of these questions.
Anaheim Public Utilities
is a publicly-owned, not-for-profit electric and water
utility that is responsible for delivering high quality,
economical electric and water utility services to residents
and businesses in the City of Anaheim.
