A Community With Deep Roots
The Barrio in Norwalk is a historically Latino, immigrant, working-class neighborhood. For decades, Hermosillo Park has served as our only accessible recreational space; a place where families gather, children play after school, and generations connect.
The neighborhood has no other park
Many families lack access to after-school programs
Elders rely on the walking paths for daily movement
The splash pad offers relief during extreme heat
A multi-generational handball community has played here for decades
For our neighborhood, the park is more than a park — it’s a lifeline.
