About Walnut

Unclaimed Property in Walnut

Walnut's substantial unclaimed property total of $22.7 million reflects the city's affluent demographics and history as a bedroom community for aerospace and tech professionals who frequently changed jobs or relocated during industry transitions. The presence of major holders like Citibank N.A. ($371,500) and PayPal Inc. ($132,000) indicates many residents had business banking relationships and online payment accounts that went dormant after job changes or moves.

With Mount San Antonio College nearby and many families moving in and out of Walnut's desirable school districts, forgotten security deposits and refunds accumulate regularly. The high concentration of credit balance and premium refund claims suggests many former residents left money behind when relocating from neighborhoods near Suzanne Park and the hills above Grand Avenue.
