Canyon Country’s serene, natural ambiance and proximity to the mountains sets it apart in northwest Los Angeles County. Residents enjoy a suburban lifestyle where you can escape the buzz of city life and enjoy the outdoors. “People are moving here because it’s a nice, clean area with an affordable housing market and a good location. It’s very safe and family friendly,” says Realtor Yosep Park of Wiltshire Properties.

Located along the Santa Clara River, Canyon Country is nestled in a valley between the Sierra Pelona Mountains and San Gabriel Mountains. It’s the largest neighborhood in the city of Santa Clarita, characterized by diverse architecture and range of housing options. Some communities feature streets lined with contemporary Mission Revival homes known for their stucco facades, intricate tilework and arched doorways and windows, while others offer cozy ranch homes and a quintessential, midcentury appeal. As you head into the rural outskirts, you’ll find homes, estates and farmhouses on large lots with plenty of privacy. “There’s a mix of beautiful, rustic homes and equestrian properties near the mountains, as well as planned communities,” says Realtor Holly Thompson of Re/Max Realty. Home prices typically range from around $400,000 for smaller, older homes to upwards of $1 million for spacious, contemporary homes, catering to wide range of budgets.

If you’re searching for outdoor recreation, bring the kids to Canyon Country Park, a large community park with a colorful playground, grassy lawns and winding walking paths with views of the surrounding mountain ranges. You might also check out Todd Longshore Park, a well-maintained neighborhood park buried in the hills. Mountainous natural preserves and regional parks surround the city on both sides, so you’re never far from scenic hiking, chaparral-covered slopes, craggy rock faces, trickling streams and the occasional waterfall or swimming hole. With gorgeous trails and education programming for all ages, Placerita Canyon Nature Center is the perfect place for a daytrip.

For families seeking exceptional education, Canyon Country offers access to some highly rated local schools in a sought-after district. Young students can attend Rio Vista Elementary, while upperclassmen attend Sierra Vista Junior High and Canyon High School, all of which hold “B” ratings or higher from Niche, an online school review site. Canyon High is known for its performing arts programs, including an award-winning choir and theatre program.

Residents have easy access to local shopping plazas with an array of grocers, big box stores and casual dining options. Stater Bros. Markets is popular grocery destination, offering fresh produce, meats and international goods. You can also shop at Food4Less or Aldi for discount items. The area features dozens of restaurants, including American, Vietnamese, Mexican and Japanese offerings. Route 66 Classic Grill is the perfect spot for a diner-style breakfast, while those in the mood for something heartier may enjoy the brothy Vietnamese soups across the street at Pho Viet.

Canyon Country borders Antelope Valley Freeway, easing your commute whether you’re heading north to the desert or south to Los Angeles. With a lovely mix of modern living with rural beauty, Canyon Country could be the perfect place to call home.
