Coastal living in Humbolt County, California
Broadway Street is where a cool bay breeze sweeps through the streets of Eureka, a coastal town in the remote reaches of Northern California. This neighborhood is largely residential and sits just outside the city’s historic Old Town district, so residents can walk to local eateries, shops and the Humboldt Bay waterfront. Home to around 26,000 residents, Eureka is a port city where logging and fishing were once the major drivers of the local economy. The city and the surrounding area are known for its moderate weather, beautiful beaches and towering redwood forests. In recent years, the region has begun transitioning into a tourism-based economy since logging in the region has been largely curtailed.
“People who come here the first time are floored by the natural beauty we have. You can be on the oceanfront, and within 10 minutes, you’re in Sequoia Park, which has some of the oldest redwoods in the state,” says Felicia Costa, broker and co-owner of Humbolt Premier Properties, a longtime area resident.
A mix of home styles, and some grand Victorians
Costa says the Broadway Street area offers “a hodgepodge” of architecture from the late 1800s. “You can’t go a block without seeing a Victorian that’s been really well maintained,” Costa says. “But there are many in varying states of repair.” The neighborhood is laid out in a traditional, flat street grid. Victorian homes with bright color patterns, ornamental trim and bay windows are a common sight, but midcentury ranch homes and bungalows also make an appearance. Homes are typically situated on lots between 5,000 and 6,000 square feet, so there’s plenty of room for gardening and landscaping. Prices range from $300,000 to $700,000, depending on their size and condition. Some large, luxurious Victorians in the neighborhood may list for upwards of $1 million.
Some of the Victorian homes in Broadway Street are as old as 1800’s.

Community parks, trails and a summer concert series
The Eureka Waterfront Trail skirts the edge of the neighborhood, offering a place to walk or bike near the bay. The trail is one way to get to the Eureka Public Marina where locals dock their boats between excursions on the bay. Summer concerts are held along the shoreline at Madaket Square every Thursday from June through August. At the eastern edge of the neighborhood is Hammond Park, which takes up nearly an entire city block and features picnic areas, a playground and basketball and tennis courts. Eureka is also known throughout the state as a haven for nature lovers. The city is just a few miles from massive redwood forests, chilly Pacific beaches and seaside vistas.

Waterfront dining, neighborhood attractions and Old Town Eureka
There are several waterfront eateries where diners can gaze out across Humboldt Bay including Jack’s Seafood, a long-running restaurant where dishes feature fresh catches from the Pacific. There’s also Pile High Deli, a few blocks from the shoreline, where locals stop off for a hearty lunch. Family activities are also close to home: locals can catch the latest Hollywood film at Broadway Cinema or test their skills on the hardwood at Harbor Lane’s bowling alley. The nearest grocery stores are Grocery Outlet and North Coast Co-op. Eureka’s Old Town district and boardwalk are close by, and within walking distance for many residents. The area is full of grand old architecture, public squares, restaurants and shops.

Access to the Pacific Coast Highway
Broadway Street itself is State Route 101, also known as the Pacific Coast Highway, a celebrated state highway that traverses the California coast. The 101 is a regional commuter corridor that will take residents to nearby coastal towns like Arcata, Fortuna and McKinleyville. Eureka is remote – the nearest major city, San Francisco, is about 270 miles away. The region’s airport, the California Redwood Coast-Humbolt County Airport, is about 16 miles north of the neighborhood.
Increased flood risk
Broadway Street is at an increased risk for flooding, especially the western side of the neighborhood where it borders the bay. The weather in Eureka is typically foggy, chilly and experiences more rainfall than central and southern California.
