Right by Disney

With The Happiest Place on Earth right next door, it’s no surprise that West Anaheim has some Disney magic in the air. “I lived in the neighborhood for a long time, and one of the perks was being able to take my kids to Disney so easily a couple of times per year,” says Laura Lazaro, who has 17 years of real estate experience in the area. “You also have a lot of people who work at Disney and live I West Anaheim because it’s so close to work.” The neighborhood serves as a quiet and more suburban counterpart to downtown Anaheim, which features dozens of hotels full of tourists trying to get a glimpse of Mickey Mouse. Disney is not the only reason residents are drawn to life in West Anaheim. The neighborhood is only 20 miles from Huntington Beach and 15 miles from Long Beach.

West Anaheim is right around the corner from the happiest place on earth, Disneyland.

Adventure City

With Disneyland right down the road, it’s no surprise that locals take advantage of the proximity with a few visits per year. However, there is another amusement park located in West Anaheim, as Adventure City serves as an alternative for those who don’t want to hassle with the lines and prices of a Disney visit. The neighborhood is also home to the 27-acre Twila Reid Park, which features a full disc golf course, youth soccer fields and playgrounds for children. Maxwell Park is a favorite spot for picnics with community grills, and there is an exercise course for adults. The Maxwell Dog Park ensures that even the family pup can stretch their paws.

From thrilling roller coasters to interactive shows, Adventure City promises all day fun.

Ranch-style homes

West Anaheim is a dense suburban neighborhood where homes are clustered on close-together lots. “It’s a very densely populated area,” says Lazaro. “But you don’t feel on top of one another.” Nearly 60% of the population in the neighborhood rents, so apartment complexes are prominent in the area. Most single-family homes are in neighborhoods located just off busy roads. Many are ranch-style homes from the 1950s with multi-car garages providing private parking. Older homes have a price point of $600,000, while recently remodeled builds are on the market for well over $1 million. Well-manicured lawns provide greenery to the neighborhood, while wide sidewalks make it easy for residents and pets to exercise on long walks. Homes are primarily stucco builds with shingle roofs, often featuring private pools. Condos and townhomes are also available in the neighborhood, with prices ranging from $450,000 to nearly $900,000.
