The productivity of El Monte has dwindled since the city had to close three of its biggest auto dealerships, an employment killing blight that it shares with so many other cities. The city is known to rely on the auto dealership industry, but since the struggles, the poverty percentage has risen to 22%. When you lose your population’s main source of employment, a city begins to die. The commute time is an average of 30 minutes.
