Anaheim Hills is a highly wealthy master-planned community that is home to many sports stars and executives located in the city's eastern stretches.

The
city of Anaheim was founded in 1857 by grape farmers and wine makers from Franconia
in Bavaria. The first such settler was Daniel Kraemer.
Anaheim in 1879 Settlers
voted to call the community Annaheim, meaning "home by the Santa Ana River"
in German. The name later was changed slightly, to Anaheim. To the Spanish-speaking
neighbors, the settlement was known as Campo Alemán (Spanish for German
Camp). The grape industry was destroyed in the 1880s by an insect pest. Other
crops - walnuts, lemons, and of course oranges - soon filled the void.
In the western portion of the city (not including Anaheim Hills), the major surface streets run east to west, starting with the northernmost, are La Palma Avenue, Lincoln Avenue, Ball Road, and Katella Avenue.
