San Marino, which is adjacent to the Pasadena neighborhood of Oak Knoll, is the most affluent city in the Pasadena area. The population is about 13,000; the median household income is $144,000. San Marino
consists almost entirely of large homes on spacious lots. It also
has the most households headed by teenagers because many east Asian
families send their children to San Marino for their education while the
parents remain at home across the Pacific. The schools have that
good of a reputation. The School Board
and City Council, however, are examining ways to require at least one adult in
a
household.
San Marino has two main shopping areas; both with independent stores that stock merchandise and provide services to San Marino residents. Huntington Drive at Sierra Madre Blvd. is the "downtown" of San Marino. This small city is not especially designed for tourists.
