What gets photographedPage One, the Camera and the Reader in Cerritos
Dairy land became master-planned tracts here, and half of Cerritos was standing by the mid-1970s. Being built in that window means a house could have either brick or an early metal unit, so the report settles that question at the start. Marine air softens the climate, yet winter rain from November through April still tests crowns and flashing. People here felt both the Chino Hills and La Habra quakes, so even a younger chimney gets its joints photographed.
