The Los Rios Historic District is an historic district and neighborhood in the city of San Juan Capistrano, California.[2][3][4] The nearby Mission San Juan Capistrano was the first of the 21 California Missions to have Indians, soldiers and workers live outside the mission grounds.[4] Three adobes remains in the Los Rios neighborhood itself, although there are a number of others close by which were part of what was once a larger neighborhood.[4]
The neighborhood originally had 40 adobe structures, but most were replaced in the 19th century by wooden board and batten structures.[5] Thirty-one of the buildings on Los Rios Street and the surrounding area are listed on the National Register of Historic Places as of 1983.[5][1][6]
