Ramona is one of many older suburbs in Greenfield, therefore it's a historic neighbourhood. Most of Ramona's residents are from Spanish and or Mexican decent. So many houses there were back then inspired by various styles such as: Spanish revival, Spanish Colonial revival, Mission revival, Pueblo revival and many more... With also the typical historical Californian styles such as Craftsman and Victorian influence making it a very architecturally diverse neighbourhood. Sadly many great homes were lost due to the fire and sometimes demolition through out the years. | Ramona is one of many older suburbs in Greenfield, therefore it's a historic neighbourhood.

== Cultural protests == | |||
Sometime after the new development. Multiple home residents began noticing a drastic change in both the culture and avenue's. No Spanish or Mexican-based stores are left because all of what used to be original commercial buildings were sold out to companies or developers, this was a very bad thing for the residents as half of it before was already gone because the east side burnt down and Unity avenue was completely redeveloped in 1969. This wave of rapid gentrification caused residents to put protest signs on the side of the new buildings and their own property too. As even sometimes going as far as tagging newly built homes in both the east side and newer homes in the core section. As the housing suburb was way too pricy for the current inhabitants of the area (because bigger prices makes for excelent money). And especially as of the late 2000s even more buildings were built and in April 2019 ground was broken up for a huge apartment block that would be completed in December 2020. This caused the residents of La Hacienda Del Rio Condominiums to be furious as their 1960s condo was considered a demolition worthy building rumors said. It is unkown what the fate will be for Ramona. | |||
