May 22, 2020 Occupying less than one square mile of land just east of the 605 Freeway at Carson Street, Hawaiian Gardens is the smallest city in Los Angeles County. But it has a big problem. Nearly 70 percent. In August of this year the city of Hawaiian Gardens declared a fiscal emergency, with a letter being sent to Governor Gavin Newsom regarding the Gardens Casino. The City receives more than 70 percent of its revenue from the Casino, which has been closed during the pandemic. 4,567 Followers, 866 Following, 990 Posts - See Instagram photos and videos from The Gardens Casino (@thegardenscasino).
