Community spirit combines with holiday cheer
Driving into Nyeland Acres from the freeway, it’s impossible to miss the neighborhood’s most high-profile resident: a giant, smiling Santa Claus popping out of a chimney, waving at the passersby. But more than just a festive face along the highway, it also serves as the starting point for the Santa to the Sea half marathon, which winds through Oxnard to the coast. “It’s probably the best way to see the whole city in one go, plus it’s for a good cause,” Long adds. The race raises money for Christmas gifts, scholarships and food for underprivileged Ventura County residents. Other outreach programs include Nyeland Promise, a neighborhood nonprofit that seeks to support Nyeland Acres residents by providing services like internet access, a food pantry and safe transportation to schools.Future chefs and championship athletes learn at Pacifica High
Kids in grades K-8 are zoned to the Rio School District, which feeds into the Oxnard Union High School District. Young students begin learning at Rio Real Elementary and Rio Del Valle Middle, which both score a C-plus from Niche. Pacifica High earns a B grade, with a culinary arts academy that culminates in students planning and executing a four-course meal for their graduation dinner. The football team, the Pacifica Tritons, won their first state championship title in 2019, the first public school in Ventura County to do so.

Densely clustered ranch-style houses
The flat streets of Nyeland Acres are lined by narrow strips of sidewalks and colorful ranch-style homes. Palm trees dot the humble lawns, most of which are fenced in and have modest landscaping ranging from shrubbery to cacti. Some homes have garages or carports, but there’s plenty of room to park along the wide roads. Most residents in Nyeland Acres rent, and some investors looking to purchase multifamily housing units in the neighborhood will find that they can cost as much as $1.6 million. On the opposite end, undeveloped lots can sell for $240,000. The median single-family home, however, is priced at $830,000 and comes with three bedrooms and Spanish-style flairs like tiled roofs.

From neighborhood markets to Ventura wineries
Los Amigos Market is located in the neighborhood to make picking up groceries a breeze, but the real reason to visit is the taqueria hidden away in the back; it’s known for having some of the juiciest carnitas around. For breakfast, locals head to Kiki’s Kitchen, an unassuming-looking diner located in a strip mall that serves American classics as well as Mexican specials like chilaquiles and huevos rancheros. In the evenings, Strey Cellars brings in food trucks and live music to supplement their wine tastings, with regular wine painting nights and a monthly book club for kids making this a surprisingly family-friendly winery. Nyeland Acres residents can get their shopping done in bulk at Costco or browse curated collector’s pieces at Early California Antiques.

Catch the Gold Coast bus or drive to the shore
Nyeland Acres is served by two Gold Coast Transit bus routes that take residents to St. John’s Regional Medical Center, Rio Vista Middle and Rio Mesa High. Residents are approximately 20 minutes or 11 miles from the oceanfront via US Highway 101, which runs along the southern border of the neighborhood, making it easy to get around Oxnard and beyond by car.

Stay active at John C. Zaragoza Community Center and Park
Residents have access to the John C. Zaragoza Community Center and Park. Jointly managed by the Boys and Girls Club of Greater Oxnard and Nyeland Promise, the park is open from dawn to dusk and is a safe place for kids to have fun on the playground or on the soccer field. The community center also offers ways for residents to stay active like Zumba classes on Saturday mornings.
