Small town vibes close to Los Angeles

At the edge of Orange County and about 20 miles from Los Angeles, Artesia is primarily a residential city but with a strong commercial presence, primarily filled with southeastern Asian businesses, along its major roadway Pioneer Boulevard. “We’re part of the Los Angeles area, but still feel like a small city,” says Rohini Bedi, the owner of Fashion By Rohini and who has been the president of the Chamber of Commerce since 2020. “I fell once, broke my arm and the police and everyone got there so quickly.” The friendliness of a small town is found in Artesia as well. “When walking downtown, everyone seems to know each other,” Bedi says. Artesia is also home to several houses of worship, including Christian churches and a Buddhist temple.

Ranch homes with renovations and a few Mediterranean two stories

Homes throughout the city often consist of ranch homes built in the 1940s and 50s. Some homes have undergone renovations, modernizing both the interior and exterior. As with many California communities, lot sizes are smaller, with one-car garages or carports, and typically lie within a small fence that covers the lot. There are some manufactured homes to the south of the city which can cost around $200,000. With a median price of around $840,000, residents might find ranch homes beginning around $600,000 with 2 bedrooms and four-bedroom homes priced near $1 million. There are a few two-story Mediterranean-style homes, which can go for more than $3 million. Artesia scores a 4 on the CAP Index, which is on par with the national average.

Southeastern Asian restaurants and shopping

From Vietnamese at Pho Pioneer Restaurant to Bangladeshi at Little Dhaka Restaurant and Grocery to South Indian at Udupi Palace and Pakistani at Shahnawaz, Artesia’s International and Cultural Shopping District along Pioneer Boulevard lives up to its name. “They’re all my favorite,” says Bedi. “I could never name one because they’re all good.” Pioneer Boulevard is also home to several international markets. To the north of the city is a Stater Bros. Market, while along South Street, fittingly to the south, sits a Sprouts Farmers Market and ALDI. Pioneer Boulevard also has a large Indian shopping section. “Anyone from India looking for something specialized will come to Artesia,” Bedi says. The Los Cerritos Center is a shopping mall just west of the city, and it has stores like Macy’s and Dillard’s.

Cultural fairs, supporting businesses and ice skating rink

“There are a lot of things that happen throughout the year, like Dwali, Holi as well as multiple fairs,” says Bedi, “The city and chamber also have events throughout the year.” The city of Artesia holds a Restaurant Week in March, as well as a Mariachi Festival in April. “It’s all about supporting businesses,” Bedi says. The city also hosts a Fourth of July celebration, a National Night Out and the International Street Fair and Diversity Festival. The city is also home to the EastWest Ice Palace, an ice skating rink offering private and public skating lessons.

High ranking schools and school of choice

The city is part of the ABC United School District, with multiple elementary, middle and high schools covering the city. The district also allows school of choice for families if they wish to attend a different school within the district. Children can start at Luther Burbank Elementary for kindergarten through sixth grade before moving to Ross Middle for seventh and eighth grade. At Artesia High, students can enroll in dual enrollment with Cerritos College, a local community college about 5 miles from the high school. All three schools earn an A-minus from Niche.

Free bus line and two nearby interstates

In October of 2023, Artesia began a free electric bus service along a fixed route through the city. The bus follows a fixed route through the city, beginning at 8 a.m. and finishing at 5 p.m. from Tuesdays to Saturdays. The bus comes through every 40-45 minutes. Interstate 605, with an entrance in the north of Artesia, acts as a north-south connector through the greater Los Angeles urban area, while State Route 91 acts as an east-west highway that services the greater Los Angeles area without actually entering the city itself.

Artesia connects to the rest of Los Angeles via the 91 and 605 freeways.
