Anaheim is a city in Orange County, California, located 28 miles southeast of Los Angeles. As of 2006, the city population was 342,410, making it the tenth-largest city in California and 56th-largest in the United States. Anaheim is the second most populous city in Orange County (behind Santa Ana) but largest in terms of land area, and it is known for its theme parks, sports teams, and convention center.

Anaheim's city limits stretch from Los Alamitos in the West to the San Bernardino County and Riverside County lines in the East, and encompass a diverse collection of neighborhoods and communities. Anaheim Hills is a master-planned community that resembles South Orange County more than the county's northern cities. West Anaheim is notable for its more mature neighborhoods dating from the 1950s, which comprise part of the continuous suburban sprawl extending from Los Angeles. The Anaheim Resort, a commercial district, includes Disneyland and the neighboring hotel and retail complexes. The Platinum Triangle, a neo-urban redevelopment district surrounding Angel Stadium, will soon be populated with mixed-use streets and high-rises. Finally, the Canyon is an industrial district north of the Riverside Freeway and east of the Orange Freeway.

The Disneyland theme park was constructed in Anaheim from July 16, 1954 to July 17, 1955 and has since become Anaheim's largest tourist attraction. The location was formerly 160 acres of orange and walnut trees, some of which remain inside Disneyland. In 2001, Disney's California Adventure Park was opened to the public, being the most expansive project in the theme park's history.

In the late 1900s, Anaheim grew rapidly in population. Today, Anaheim has a diverse racial and ethnic composition.
