Low-key Californian living in Ganesha

Ganesha manages to both encapsulate Southern California's past and lean into its contemporary advancements. As one delves deeper into the neighborhood, it's evident how Ganesha melds the old with the new, becoming a diverse representation of Californian living. “I would describe it as a pleasantly low-key mid-century neighborhood,” says local Realtor Fred Van Allen of First Team Real Estate. “It’s close to both the Cal Poly Pomona campus and central Pomona, and the highways are all right there. So it’s a pretty convenient place to live, all in all.”
