About Los Alamitos

Unclaimed Property in Los Alamitos

Los Alamitos has accumulated substantial unclaimed property due to its unique position as a military community adjacent to Los Alamitos Joint Forces Training Base and its high concentration of aerospace industry workers who frequently relocate for defense contracts. The significant holdings from Capital One NA ($78,700) and Interinsurance Exchange of the Automobile Club ($52,500) reflect the area's military families who often change banking relationships during Pcs moves and maintain multiple auto insurance policies across state lines.

The Walt Disney Company's $1,400 in unclaimed property likely stems from Los Alamitos residents' employment at nearby Disney facilities in Anaheim, where stock dividends and final paychecks often go unclaimed after job changes. Given the city's proximity to major defense contractors like Boeing and Raytheon, many unclaimed funds originate from employees who relocated without updating their addresses with HR departments, particularly affecting residents near the Rossmoor and Los Alamitos Race Course areas where many military retirees have settled.
