Why Brea Homes Get Retrofitted
Brea started as an oil town and was incorporated in 1917. The streets around the old downtown still have homes from the 1920s on raised foundations, while the newer hillside tracts are mostly slab-on-grade and usually don't need this work.
The Whittier Fault runs through the hills along Brea's north side, on its way from Whittier to Yorba Linda.
