About Downey, California

Downey is a city located in southeast Los Angeles County, California, United States, 13 miles (21 km) southeast of downtown Los Angeles. It is considered part of the Gateway Cities. As of the 2010 census, the city had a total population of 111,779.

The City played a pivotal role in the U.S. space program by being the site for the building of Saturn V booster rockets and lunar-landing modules for the Apollo space program. Downey aerospace workers also built five space shuttles (including the ill-fated Columbia and Challenger).

Retail businesses, service industries, and manufacturing are now the city’s economic mainstays. Downey is home to the oldest surviving McDonald’s restaurant (opened 1953), a large Coca-Cola bottling factory, and a municipal art museum that houses works by local and national artists. The city’s library contains a collection devoted to the 1970s pop duo the Carpenters, who lived in the city in the 1960s.
