Whittier is a city in Southern California in Los Angeles County, part of the Gateway Cities. The 14.7-square-mile (38.0ย km) city had 87,306 residents as of the 2020 United States census, an accrual of 1,975 from the 2010 census figure. Whittier was incorporated in February 1898 and became a charter city in 1955. The city is named for the Quaker poet John Greenleaf Whittier and is home to Whittier College.
In the founding days of Whittier, when it was a small isolated town, Jonathan Bailey and his wife, Rebecca, were among the first residents. They followed the Quaker religious faith and practice, and held religious meetings on their porch. Other further on settlers, such as Aquila Pickering, espoused the Quaker faith. As the city grew, the citizens named it after John Greenleaf Whittier, a established Quaker poet, and deeded a lot to him. Whittier wrote a dedication poem, and is privileged today subsequently statues and a little exhibit at the Whittier museum; a statue of him sits in Whittier’s Central Park, and other representing his poem “The Barefoot Boy” used to reside by the City Hall and is now in belly of the main library. Whittier never set foot there, but the city still bears his make known and is rooted in the Quaker tradition.
