Glendale is the fourth-largest city in LA County with a wide range of housing from 1920s hillside estates to modern condos downtown. Homes in the Verdugo Woodlands, Rossmoyne, and Sparr Heights often date to the 1920s-1940s and still have original galvanized or cast iron plumbing. The city gets about 70% of its water from imported Metropolitan Water District sources and 30% from local Verdugo Basin groundwater wells.
