The Simi Hills of Ventura County are the backdrop for Oak Park, a neighborhood known for its lush scenery and well-regarded schools. Natural beauty defines this neighborhood, with wide-open spaces, mountains, canyons and several parks surrounding the area. This area is fully developed, so prices and the availability of properties will reflect the fact that there is no more room for additional subdivisions in this area.
Tucked a few miles from the 101 Freeway, residents avoid longer commutes to Los Angeles, Malibu or Santa Clarita. Public transit is readily available via the Kanan Shuttle, a free shuttle taking residents to neighborhood schools and residential areas near Kanan Road.

The shuttle can also transport students directly to Oak Park High School and Medea Creek Middle School.
Home prices range from $415,000 for a one-bedroom 1990s townhouse to $2.49 million for Mediterranean villas with private pools and mountain views.

Many home models were built with Spanish elements like terra cotta tile roofing and stucco exteriors, with sizes ranging from ranchers to expansive estates. Many homes date back to the 1970s to 1990s, though many new constructions exist in the area.

Oak Park is surrounded by outdoor spaces, with community parks, hiking trails, canyons and nature preserves all within the neighborhood. Those with a bow and arrow can take them to Oak Canyon Community Center and Park, where there’s an archery range and plenty of other activities to enjoy. Deerhill Park is popular with athletes, with pickleball and tennis courts, soccer fields and playgrounds. Locals can hike scenic trails at the 625-acre Sage Ranch Park, where they can take in massive sandstone rock formations and breathtaking views of the valley. The park is overflowing with fragrant coastal sage scrub, chaparral, oak woodlands and wildflower meadows. The Cave of Munits holds a lot of cultural significance for the native Chumash people of the area. Today, experienced hikers and rock climbers flock to the cave to explore its 1.9-mile looping trail, considered highly challenging.
Retail and restaurant options are found at Oak Park Plaza, on the neighborhood’s northwestern edge. Dining options include Cafe Sapientia, where you can grab an assortment of sandwiches, bagels, pastries, coffee, specialty tea and Korean shaved ice.
