Bellflower, California is a fabulous place to rent an RV for a variety of reasons, most notably, its position within Los Angeles County. Bellflower was originally named Somerset when it was first founded in the early 20th century. The town was renamed Bellflower in honor of the Bellflower apple that was one of the major crops in the largely agricultural town. Dairy farmers were amongst the first people to settle the area over 150 years ago, many of which were from other countries, giving the town a diverse population from the start.
