Living on the doorstep of The Happiest Place on Earth

It's no wonder why anyone would want to live on the doorstep of The Happiest Place on Earth, but the park serves different functions for the mixed populace of The Anaheim Resort. "Some people love Disneyland so much that they want to live by it. I have friends who have houses there just because they love Disney," says lifelong Orange County resident and Realtor Rick Lee. "But it's also a place where a lot of people in the area work. It provides a lot of employment, so being close to it is attractive." He explains that it's also a reasonable commute to LA, so people who work in LA but don't want to live there might opt for Orange County instead. With Disneyland, Angel Stadium, major shopping centers and many restaurants nearby, there's always plenty to do. Plus, "You can wear flip-flops and shorts 24/7," Lee says.

Disneyland Resort is definitely the main draw for living in this part of Anaheim.

Outdoor recreation and community resources at Ponderosa Park

The Anaheim Resort has ample outdoor space for residents to spend time outside at spots like Ponderosa Park and Pioneer Park. In addition to a large, colorful playground and a splash pad, Ponderosa Park has additional athletic facilities like baseball fields and a skatepark, and it has an expansive shaded picnic area with lots of tables. Ponderosa Park is also home to the Ponderosa Park Family Resource Center, which provides extensive programming and resources to residents. The center has bilingual staff on site who assess the needs of families and provide them with human services and programs that best suit them. Some of the center's ongoing programming includes ESL classes, a Women, Infant and Children program, which provides supplemental food, nutrition education and breastfeeding support, and food distribution. They also host events like family arts and crafts nights and seasonal celebrations to foster a sense of community amongst Anaheim families. Some residents also spend time at Pioneer Park, which is on the neighborhood's south side and has baseball diamonds and a playground.

Shopping at The Outlets at Orange and local dining amidst fast-food chains

Though the area's flooded with all-American fast-casual and fast-food chains, The Anaheim Resort residents still have their pick of local dining options like Roscoe's House of Chicken and Waffles, a casual, LA-based soul food restaurant, and Teppanyaki Grill Supreme Buffet, which has Chinese, Japanese and American cuisines. For a sweet treat, they head to Joe's Italian Ice, and for shopping, they go to The Outlets at Orange, an open-air outlet mall with 25 restaurants, an indoor skatepark and a movie theater. For groceries, most shop at the nearby Vons, Walmart Neighborhood Market or El Super, a Mexico-based supermarket chain.

Low-rise condos and single-family homes

Housing in The Anaheim Resort is generally modest, mostly low-rise condos and other multifamily dwellings. "I see a lot of multigenerational families in this neighborhood," Lee says. "You'll have grandma living with the kids or aunts and uncles." There are some single-family homes in the neighborhood, typically bungalows or ranch-style homes, as well as some manufactured homes, generally belonging to communities with shared amenities. The neighborhood's south end has the highest concentration of single-family homes, often with Spanish tile, front-facing garages and palm trees lining the sidewalks along the streets. Prices in The Anaheim Resort start around $115,000 for a manufactured home and get as high as $2 million for a multiunit investment property. For most two- to three-bedroom condos and single-family homes, buyers should expect to spend between $600,000 and $1 million, depending on the property's age, size and condition. The median overall price is $700,000.

Commuting to LA and getting around with the Anaheim Transportation Network

The Anaheim Resort is located along Interstate 5, which residents can take about 30 miles northwest to get to downtown Los Angeles. “A lot of people have to work in LA but don’t want to live in LA,” Lee says. “Being in Anaheim, you’re not that far.” The Anaheim Transportation Network serves area residents with various transportation and mobility services, including Free Rides Around the Neighborhood and rides to the airport in all-electric vans. The John Wayne Airport is only 11 miles away, and the UCI Medical Center is less than a mile away.
