Central Costa Mesa
What it’s like to live in Central Costa Mesa
Eclectic energy defines this enclave where the LAB Anti-Mall hosts avant-garde art installations. Renters love walkability to OC Fairgrounds but contend with event-related parking shortages. Many 1960s courtyard complexes lack central AC despite coastal humidity.

Eastside Costa Mesa
What it’s like to live in Eastside Costa Mesa
Creative energy flows through Eastside Costa Mesa, where modest beach bungalows and California ranch homes attract artists, musicians, and young professionals seeking coastal proximity without Newport Beach prices. The neighborhood's walking distance to both Newport Beach's Upper Back Bay nature preserve and 17th Street's restaurant row creates perfect balance between natural and urban amenities. Though some properties show their age with vintage quirks requiring maintenance knowledge beyond typical renter experience, the trade-off comes in architectural character and established gardens unavailable in newer developments. The primary consideration remains street parking challenges, particularly during summer beach season when visitor overflow affects residential areas. The neighborhood perfectly balances coastal accessibility with authentic community character increasingly rare in Orange County's more developed beach communities.
