Glendora Gym Market -- Overview
Glendora is a foothill community of about 53,000 in the eastern San Gabriel Valley, anchored by walkable Glendora Village -- the historic Route 66 downtown -- and the foothills around the Glendora Country Club. Citrus College sits just to the south. The fitness market is family-suburban: full-service chains along Route 66 and Lone Hill Avenue, boutique studios in the Village, and a strong reformer Pilates and yoga presence reflecting the affluent demographic.
