Orange County is a unique area often considered to be the suburbs of Los Angeles or even San Diego.\u00a0 That being said, there is plenty of personality, charm, events, and character that make OC stand out amongst others.\u00a0 It’s no wonder that housing prices have steadily risen over the past few years. There might not be many secrets due to the area’s recent notoriety, but here are five neighborhoods you may not have previously considered as excellent places to live in Orange County. Aliso Viejo – With new homes, interesting architecture, and plenty of space, Aliso Viejo is an up-and-comer.\u00a0 Considering homes next door in Mission Viejo are regularly exceeding $1,000,000, this area still remains relatively lower cost with growth potential.\u00a0 The city has done an excellent job of drawing the right type of people to the area and progressively building a tremendous community. Seal Beach – The city is often considered old (currently), but the existing infrastructure and shoreline location means big things for this city.\u00a0 Seal Beach maintains a beautiful and private section of the Pacific Ocean exclusively to itself.\u00a0 With restaurants and shops covering all interests, this area could quickly become a tourist haven or a smart place to invest in right now.\u00a0 The median home price is nearly a quarter of most beachfront property located in and around Orange County. Santa Ana –\u00a0 \u00a0Near downtown, or the artist’s village, you can find plenty of buzz swirling around activity and passion.\u00a0 Coastal locations often get the most recognition, but Santa Ana has dramatically upgraded within the past year.\u00a0 The community was regularly considered rough for many years.\u00a0 Yet, in a very short amount of time, the change has been dramatic and non-stop.\u00a0 Young people have spent much time and energy to help move this city forward.\u00a0 Due to their efforts, among others within the community, Santa Ana now boasts a variety of hip restaurants, pubs, and events.\u00a0 This place has suddenly become a hotspot for young professionals and students. Fullerton – California State Fullerton has always given this community some life, and has frequently infused energy and excitement into the local establishments.\u00a0 The mix of student community and professionals has a perfect blend that creates an excellent balance.\u00a0 Typically, we consider a level of risk when thinking about a college town that can support the party scene.\u00a0 In Fullerton, the student population does not seems to cultivate a great sense of community and sustain a strong sense of morals and values.\u00a0 You can find relatively affordable housing throughout Fullerton.\u00a0 Savvy home-hunters and investors can still find bargain condos that be turned into rentals and starter homes. Stanton – The smaller city of Stanton is certainly overlooked, but the homes are significantly lower.\u00a0 While Stanton might be very lowkey, you can head to Anaheim for baseball games or head to Disneyland.\u00a0 The location, itself, makes the city very valuable and likely to attract the right kind of people to it.\u00a0 The median home is priced at $400,000 and that will not last for long.\u00a0 The homes have already experienced a steady increase over the past few years.\u00a0 This is an area worth considering as it grows.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":4415,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5,1,4],"tags":[27,26,33,34],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/mcveighproperties.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4414"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/mcveighproperties.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/mcveighproperties.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/mcveighproperties.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/mcveighproperties.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4414"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"http:\/\/mcveighproperties.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4414\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4417,"href":"http:\/\/mcveighproperties.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4414\/revisions\/4417"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/mcveighproperties.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4415"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/mcveighproperties.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4414"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/mcveighproperties.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4414"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/mcveighproperties.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4414"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
