History and modernity in Alisal
East Salinas – also known as Alisal – is best thought of as two distinct areas coupled together in a single neighborhood. “There’s East Salinas and New East Salinas,” explains Realtor Regina Shaw, who has represented transactions in the area for two decades. “East Salinas is more densely populated, and houses were built in the 1950s and 1960s. New East Salinas homes are newer construction built in the last 20 years, and the lot sizes are bigger.”

Centrally located California favorites
Residents of East Salinas can get their groceries at the centrally located Foods Co, but shopping at either Walmart Supercenter or Target requires making the 3-mile trip to Harden Ranch Plaza on North Main Street. For more in-depth retail therapy, locals head to Westridge Plaza, slightly over 4 miles away, where they can browse at stores that include PetSmart, Ross and Dick’s Sporting Goods. Costco also has a warehouse location in Westridge Plaza for members’ shopping convenience. When it’s time to dine out, a local favorite is the authentic Mexican cuisine at Culturas Hidalgo y Oaxaca. For those who want some quick take-out, the California mainstay In-N-Out Burger has a location nearby on Kern Street, so residents aren’t too far away from their animal-style double-double.
