How old do you have to be to rent a car in Pasadena?

What do you need to rent a car in Pasadena?

Where can I find a Pasadena car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to check the age policy of the Pasadena rental providers you're interested in. If you're under the age of 25, be mindful that some will charge additional costs.

Each rental car company has its own terms and conditions for younger drivers, so it's smart to do your research.
