===Development=== Due to its topography of rolling hills, Chino Hills was primarily rural prior to the mid-1970s; most land was utilized for [[equestrianism|equestrian]] purposes and for [[dairies]], except for the multi-use purposes of the State of California, promoting jobs for the community through [[day labor]] from the Chino Institute for Men on Central Avenue. Rapid and extensive housing developments followed throughout the 1980s and early 1990s, only slowing down in recent years. Most neighborhoods are arranged in a village-type format with strategically placed shopping centers and parks designed to be within walking distance of nearby homes. The Vellano Country Club, a private golf course and housing development, was designed by golf champion [[Greg Norman]], his first project in the [[Greater Los Angeles area]].<ref> {{cite news |last=Rappaport |first=Michael |title=Buyers Lining Up To Live in Vellano |url=http://www.shark.com/gngcd/gngcd/041505.php |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20061017215351/http://www.shark.com/gngcd/gngcd/041505.php |archive-date=October 17, 2006 |access-date=January 18, 2007 |newspaper=Inland Valley Daily Bulletin}}</ref> Chino Hills also includes the developed golf course development [[neighborhood]] of [[Los Serranos, Chino Hills, California|Los Serranos]].
