How has your City sustained interest as an attractive option for companies?
Downtown Paramount is reinvigorated with an award-winning streetscape recognized by the Southern California Chapter of the American Society of Landscape Architects. The area has become a magnet for strolling, shopping, and dining, attracting new commercial life with varied retailers and restaurants. This also contributed to a 7% boost in property values last year, above L.A. County’s total.
How is your City different than others in the region?
Centrally located between the 91, 710 and 105 freeways, Paramount features a wide range of business and retail opportunities, along with attractive neighborhoods, making it a prime place to live, work, and play. Paramount is a leader in innovative and inventive economic programs. Our 10 business-day or less building permit process is renowned for fast approval turnarounds and low fees. The City is also home to such unique enterprises as Marukan Vinegar (USA), a centuries-old Japanese manufacturer, North America’s only sustainable biofuel plant, World Energy, and the Zamboni Ice Resurfacing Machine.
