The town of Canoga Park was founded in the South West corner of the San Fernando Valley on March 30, 1912. It was an agricultural community producing wheat, sugar, beets and eventually citrus, walnuts, chickens and eggs. In 1931 the name was changed to Canoga Park. It continued to be a small community until Pierce College was founded in the late ’40s and the large aerospace firms (Rocketdyne, Litton Hughes Aircraft) arrive in the 1950s. In the 1960s the 101 Freeway connected the West Valley to the city making Canoga Park and West Hills suburbs of Los Angeles.
Today, Sherman Way in historic downtown Canoga Park is the “main street” of Canoga Park. This is a vibrant business, social and cultural mecca. There are antique shops, live entrainment, music clubs and restaurants. This street is also home to the Walk of Hearts® where bronze plaques are embedded in the sidewalk to recognize distinguished teachers.
Canoga Park and West Hills are further enhanced with two regional malls, the Westfield Topanga which includes over 200 fashion forward shops and boutiques, extensive dining options and cutting edge am entities including an expanded Nordstrom’s and Target and Neiman Marcus opening in 2008. The Fallbrook Center is a one million square foot open-air with such stores as Kohl’s, DSW, Mervyns and Burlington Coat Factory.

VENTURA BOULEVARDVentura Boulevard is one of the primary east–west thoroughfares in the San Fernando Valley. It was also U.S. Route 101 before the freeway (which it is parallel to for much of Ventura Boulevard's length) was built and it was also signed as Business U.S. Route 101.
Running 18 miles, Ventura Boulevard is the world's longest avenue of contiguous businesses. The Boulevard begins near Calabasas in Woodland Hills at an intersection with Valley Circle Boulevard, passes through Tarzana, Encino, Sherman Oaks, and finally in Studio City (where it intersects with Barham Boulevard) it becomes Cahuenga Boulevard, which then winds through Cahuenga Pass into Hollywood. It has always been the most concentrated location for mom and pop shops and small businesses in the Valley; nowadays it has pockets of housing, mini-malls, and shops, along with a wide assortment of businesses, schools, and other establishments. Homes south of Ventura are considered to be among the most expensive in Los Angeles County, ranging from $2 million to $50 million and home to numerous celebrities, executives, athletes, and entertainers alike.

Canoga Park market trends indicate an increase of $25,750 (5%) in median home sales over the past year. The average price per square foot for this same period rose to $364, up from $334.
Due to the high single-family residential prices, and a continuing demand for housing in San Fernando Valley, there is strong demand for the development of higher density apartment buildings and condominiums. Most new apartment development is occurring from redevelopment of older, low-density projects. Historically, apartment demand has been strong, and has been influenced by high home prices and the central location of the Valley relative to employment centers. As a result, the San Fernando Valley area has become one of the most densely populated areas in Los Angeles County. Warner Center has a large concentration of high-end, resort style apartment communities. These luxury apartments cater to the large and growing workforce population in Warner Center and Woodland Hills.
