Centrally-located suburbia

West Floral Park offers a blend of suburban tranquility, community engagement, and convenient access to Downtown Santa Ana, making it a perfect landing spot for those looking for both a sense of community and easy access to urban amenities. “The best part about living here is the neighbors,” says Judith Goldstein, President of the West Floral Park Neighborhood Association. “The slogan on our newsletter is ‘Where neighbors turn into family and friends,’ and it’s so true. If someone needs something, there are at least seven neighbors ready to help,” she says. “Also, I think people are drawn here because of the price point. The homes are a little more affordable than Floral Park but a little higher than other neighborhoods, so it's in that sort of sweet spot.”
