the foothill community of La Canada Flintridge, up in the Crescenta Valley
This is an upscale foothill community, and a lot of the properties sit high on sloped ground with chimneys that run taller than average. Getting to those safely for an inspection or repair usually means bringing in scaffolding or specialized lift equipment, not just a ladder.
This part of the foothills, north of Pasadena, is squarely in wildfire country. The Station Fire burned inside city limits back in 2009, so spark arrestors and cleared defensible space around every chimney matter here more than in flatter neighborhoods.

Alhambra, on the west side of the San Gabriel Valley
A big share of Alhambra's homes go back to the 1920s, and plenty still have the original brick chimney standing on top. After decades of California earthquakes, that old brick and mortar is worth a hands-on look rather than a guess from the yard.
