The early name of the city was different - El Rodeo de las Aguas that can be translated as Gathering of the Waters. Later, the region became famous for its lima bean farms, turning to the “home of movie stars” in the 20s and 30s of the 20th century. The ties to the film industry have not disappeared. Even though the city has only 34,000 residents, the daytime population of Beverly Hills is more than 200,000.
