Tustin, California#Demographics

Presently known as Red Hill, it was previously called the Katuktu hill by the indigenous while the Spanish also came up with the name "Cerrito de las ranas" which translates to little hill of frogs due to the quantity of frogs inhabiting the area.{{Cite web |date=2022-08-28 |title=Tustin's Red Hill - Tustin Area Historical Society |url=https://tustinhistory.com/collections/tustins-red-hill/#:~:text=Tustin%20is%20situated%20on%20the,Rancho%20Santiago%20de%20Santa%20Ana. |access-date=2025-05-07 |website=tustinhistory.com |language=en-US}}

On November 1, 1776, Mission San Juan Capistrano became the area's first permanent European settlement in Alta California, New Spain.

In 1801, the Spanish Empire granted {{convert|62500|acre|km2}} to José Antonio Yorba, which he named Rancho San Antonio. Yorba's great rancho included the lands where the cities and communities of Olive, Orange, Villa Park, Santa Ana, Tustin, Costa Mesa and Newport Beach stand today. Smaller ranchos evolved from this large rancho including the Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana.

After the Mexican–American War, Alta California became part of the United States and American settlers arrived in this area. Columbus Tustin, a carriage maker from Northern California, founded the city in 1868 on {{Convert|1,300|acre|km2}} of land from the former Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana. The city was incorporated in 1927 with a population of about 900. The townsite was bordered by Camino Real on the south, Newport Avenue on the east, 1st Street on the north, and Route 43, now known as the Costa Mesa Freeway, on the west.

During World War II, a Navy anti-submarine airship base (later to become a Marine Corps helicopter station) was established on unincorporated land south of the city; the two dirigible hangars are among the largest wooden structures ever built and are listed on the National Register of Historic Places and ASCE List of Historic Civil Engineering Landmarks. The north hangar burned down in 2023.{{Cite news |last=Medina |first=Eduardo |date=November 7, 2023 |title=Fire Destroys World War II-Era Blimp Hangar in California |work=The New York Times |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2023/11/07/us/fire-blimp-hangar-california.html}}

Suburban growth after the war resulted in increased population, annexation of nearby unincorporated land, including the former Marine Corps Air Station, and development of orchards and farmland into housing tracts and shopping centers.

In 1996, two white supremacists, Gunner Lindberg and Domenic M. Christopher, stabbed a 24-year-old Vietnamese American to death on the high school tennis courts.{{Cite web |date=2010-07-29 |title=OC Hate Crime Killer Headed For Lethal Injection - Orange County News - Navel Gazing |url=http://blogs.ocweekly.com/navelgazing/breaking-news/oc-hate-crime-killer-headed-fo/ |access-date=2025-05-15 |website=web.archive.org |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100729111717/http://blogs.ocweekly.com/navelgazing/breaking-news/oc-hate-crime-killer-headed-fo/ |archive-date=2010-07-29}}{{Cite web |last=Anton |first=Mike |date=2008-08-30 |title=Death penalty upheld in O.C. hate killing |url=https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2008-aug-30-me-death30-story.html |access-date=2025-05-15 |website=Los Angeles Times |language=en-US}} In 2008, Lindberg became the first person in Orange County to be sentenced to death for a hate crime.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 11.1 square miles (28.7 km{{sup|2}}). It is bordered by Irvine on the south and east, Orange and the unincorporated community North Tustin on the north, and Santa Ana on the west.

The city is sometimes referred to as "The City of Trees".{{cite web | title=Learn About The City | website=Tustin, CA | url=https://www.tustinca.org/596/Learn-About-The-City | access-date=March 1, 2021}} Sycamores and oaks, native to the area, grew in abundance at the time of the founding of the city, and city founder Columbus Tustin was responsible for planting many more along the streets of the city.{{cite web | title=Tustin: The City of Trees | website=Orange County Register|first=Juanita |last=Lovret | date=June 7, 2012 | url=https://www.ocregister.com/2012/06/07/tustin-the-city-of-trees-2/ | access-date=March 1, 2021}}

Local politics in the late 1990s and early 2000s were dominated by the 1997 closure of the local Marine Corps Air Station and plans for the subsequent commercial development of the land, including an unsuccessful bid by neighboring Santa Ana to build a school on the land, part of which is within Santa Ana Unified School District's territory.
