Upland was incorporated in San
Bernardino County on May 15, 1906, and developed into a residential and retail
community that has maintained its
country and urban ambiance. The city's
colorful history goes back to the day in
1882 when George Chaffey gazed out over
the beautiful valley, after making the
trek from his native Canada to find a
very special place for a new colony. Shoshone Indians were the region's
primary residents.
The arrival of the Santa Fe Railroad
from the east triggered a land boom in
Upland in the 1880's and the area became known for quality citrus fruit. The
Upland Lemon Growers Association was one
of Upland's first companies to form.
Upland's date of incorporation was 1906.
Upland's emergence as one of Southern
California's most attractive residential
communities came with the population
boom that followed World War II. The
warm and contagious spirit of its
residents, the beauty of its landscape,
the majesty of its mountainous skyline,
the clemency of its weather, and the
proximity to the Southland's many
recreation and cultural attractions
combined to convince newcomers that
Upland was truly "The City of Gracious
Living" as envisioned by those who
settled here over a century ago.
