Costa Mesa calls itself the “City of the Arts,” home to the Segerstrom Center for the Arts, South Coast Repertory and the Orange County Museum of Art, all clustered around South Coast Plaza, one of the highest-grossing shopping centers in the country. Just inland from Newport Beach, it offers a more attainable entry point to the coastal lifestyle, with surf-culture roots on the Eastside and Westside neighborhoods.
Living in Costa Mesa
Eastside Costa Mesa, bordering Newport Beach, is prized for its large lots and remodeled mid-century homes. Mesa Verde offers a golf-course community feel, while the Westside has become a hub of breweries, design studios and new townhome developments. Newport-Mesa Unified serves the city, and the 405, 55 and 73 freeways converge here.
