Official Recognition of West Grove
Historically, the term West garden" target="_blank">Garden Grove, or West Grove, was used only on unofficial basis and was not officially recognized by the city of garden" target="_blank">Garden Grove On April 24, 2018, West Grove's representative to the garden" target="_blank">Garden Grove City Council, Kris Beard, proposed a resolution that would officially designate West Grove as a business district within the city.
Councilman Beard's resolution was met with mixed feelings. Supporters felt that designating West Grove as an official neighborhood would make it easier to attract upscale chains to the area, since they would be looking at only West Grove's demographic information, and not the entire city.

Additionally, West Grove has a much lower crime rate, a lower poverty rate, and lower population density compared to the rest of garden" target="_blank">Garden Grove.

On May 8, 2018, after Beard received comments on the resolution, and amended it to make the wording less divisive, the garden" target="_blank">Garden Grove City Council officially approved the resolution, officially recognizing West Grove as a neighborhood of the city, and creating the West Grove District.
