A cozy neighborhood 5 miles from the beachfront
Spanish for "behold the coast," the Mira Costa residential community offers a comfortable pace that's removed from the beachfront buzz, though the sparkling ocean expanse is just 5 miles west. Mira Costa is just a few miles from Downtown Oceanside and Buccaneer Beach. Locals can bike to a country club and a longstanding college situated on a hill within the neighborhood. According to Brian Thornton of Thornton Realty, a Realtor who's been selling homes in the area for decades, "The neighborhood offers a lot of different types of housing, with HOAs, so you don't have any haphazard development; it's all very harmonized. Some streets are completely private, others are public. And there's a gated senior community, as well as a gated condo project near MiraCosta College."
Mira Costa is just Minutes from the beach to take a walk or run along the strand.

Home to MiraCosta College
On the western side of the community, Mira Costa College serves more than 20,000 students. Thornton adds, "It's a real advantage living in Mira Costa to be able to bike or walk to the college. A lot of the students there transition to UC San Diego or San Diego State University. And while it's a suburban area around the campus, you can still head to the beach to surf or go the Farmers Market in Oceanside. It's a great area that's close to the ocean breezes, but you don't get that San Diego fog. It's the best of both worlds, really."
