Calabasas

Welcome to Calabasas

The land in and around Calabasas was originally settled by the Chumash Native Americans. Although they named the land “Calabasas”, there has been some disagreement over the meaning of the name. Some people think it originates from “calabazo,” Spanish for “where the pumpkins fell” after an overturned wagon spilled pumpkin seeds along the route to Los Angeles; while others believe the city’s name comes from the Chumash word for “where the wild geese fly.” Whatever the case, the name has been around for over 100 years. Over time, the area became a ranching community as Calabasas homes were built. Eventually, Calabasas became a vacation spot for people and Hollywood filmed a few movies because of the beautiful location. In the late 1950s, the many people moved to the area and purchased Calabasas real estate and in 1981, the city became incorporated.
