How did Eastvale begin?
In 1838 the Mexican governor Juan Alvarado granted Rancho Jurupa, about 48 square miles, to Juan Bandini. Eastvale covers roughly the westernmost quarter of that grant. The Fuller family later owned about 6 square miles of ranch land here, from 1889 to 1954.
For most of its history the area was rural. Eastvale was mostly dairy farms and farmland until the late 1990s.
How did Eastvale become a city?
From the late 1990s, new housing drew residents from Orange and Los Angeles counties. The area grew quickly as a result.
An incorporation committee gathered enough signatures to put the question on the June 8, 2010 ballot. Measure A passed, with 65.8 percent of voters approving incorporation. Eastvale was incorporated on October 1, 2010.
