Unclaimed Property in North Hills
North Hills has accumulated substantial unclaimed property due to its history as a bedroom community for aerospace workers during the defense industry boom and subsequent layoffs in the 1990s. Many former Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman employees left behind dormant bank accounts and uncashed pension checks when they relocated.
Wells Fargo Bank holds the largest amount at $565,900, typically from old savings accounts and CDs, while Citibank's $95,500 represents mostly uncashed payroll and vendor checks. The neighborhoods near Nordhoff Street and the Granada Hills border show higher concentrations of unclaimed property, likely due to the transient nature of families who moved during the post-Cold War aerospace downsizing.
With the closure of several local credit unions over the years, many North Hills residents may not even realize their old accounts were transferred to state custody.

Is there a deadline to claim unclaimed property in North Hills?
