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] making it the oldest residential neighborhood in California. 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]
