Zaferia is a neighborhood in the eastern part of Long Beach, California. It corresponds to the area around Anaheim Street and Redondo Avenue. It was founded as a small town, and shortly thereafter was served by the Pacific Electric Railway's Balboa Line, which had a station named "Zaferia" near Anaheim and Redondo at the junction with the 3rd Street/Redondo Avenue local. The area cites 1913 as its date of founding; by that time, the area contained numerous businesses and even a newspaper. It was one of a handful of "wet" cities in Los Angeles County in the 1910s.[1] It was annexed by Long Beach in 1920. A park at Pacific Coast Highway and Redondo bears the name "Plaza Zaferia".
