From 1912 until 1921, Torrance was a privately held city. In 1921, the population of Torrance was about 1,800, and the community put the idea of incorporating Torrance as a city to a vote. The vote to incorporate passed, 355-11, and the city was formally incorporated in May, 1921.

Join us in celebrating what marks the start of Torrance shaping it's identity into the big city with a hometown feel it is today.
