Airports Near Anaheim, California

Started by German immigrants in 1857, Anaheim--"Ana" for the nearby Santa Ana River and "heim", German for home--has played a pivotal role in Southern California's development as a region. Originally a wine-producing area, the farmers of Anaheim switched to oranges in the 1970s after a plague wiped out the vineyards. Anaheim was the first commercial producer of oranges in what was later to become Orange County. Change came on July 17, 1955, the opening day of Disneyland. From that day forward, Anaheim moved from being a sleepy little agricultural town to being one of the world's top destinations. With more than 340,000 permanent residents, Anaheim is a vibrant, fast-paced city. Easy access to airports is critical not only for tourists, but for Anaheim residents as well.
