Possible future annexation by Covina[edit]

The annexation of Vincent (the portion south of Arrow Highway) and other unincorporated portions of Covina has long been considered by the City of Covina. As of August 2019, Covina has been exploring its possibility. Residents' opinions were mixed, with some supporting the idea and others pushing it back. It is currently unknown whether Covina is still exploring the possibility of annexing unincorporated areas.
