The Bryn Mawr area was an unincorporated community. Being an unincorporated community means that Bryn Mawr did not have an official city government. In the 1970s the new city of Loma Linda began to annex, or add, parts of Bryn Mawr to the city of Loma Linda. Although today Bryn Mawr is a part of Loma Linda it still has its own postal code: 92318.
