Want to save money and help your community when you shop? Shop and buy in Arcadia, California first! Get the local deals, coupons and promotions direct from Arcadia, California businesses delivered to your account inbox. When you shop online with WowCity, Arcadia, California benefits because tax dollars are kept within the local community that will be used to fund schools and city services.

Buying American is good, however we believe that buying from small businesses in the city where we live is better since small business drives our nation's job market. In reality, most if not all consumer products we buy are made offshore. By supporting local small businesses, the mom and pop shops and locally owned enterprises, a bigger part of every dollar we spend cycles back to the community.

ARCADIA, CALIFORNIA

The famous U.S. Route 66, immortalized in song and literature, passes through Arcadia, on Huntington Drive in Downtown Arcadia, before turning off onto Colorado Place and then Colorado Street. After intersecting the 210 freeway, Route 66 runs parallel to and south of the freeway, cutting across the middle section of Arcadia.

The city is mentioned by Jack Kerouac in his novel On the Road: Sal, the protagonist, is run out of town by a group of hostile teens when he stops for food at a local drive-in restaurant with a young Mexican woman. The vignette demonstrates the intolerance and racism prevalent in many places during 1950s America.

In a motel located in Arcadia across the street north-east from Santa Anita Racetrack, author Hunter S. Thompson wrote much of his novel, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas in the 1970s. In Michael Cunningham's novel The Hours, Laura Brown mentions that she heard of a man who died in nearby Arcadia.

In the Movie Cloverfield the scene in which the survivors walk inside Bloomingdale's was actually filmed inside a Robinsons-May store under reconstruction inside the Westfield Santa Anita in Arcadia.

The Los Angeles County Arboretum is located in Arcadia across from the Santa Anita mall and racetrack. It is a popular attraction especially for the flock of peacocks that inhabit the neighborhood near the arboretum. The Arcadia Festival of Bands is a popular local yearly event.
