Placentia Overview

Placentia, California, is a town of around 51,000 residents in northern Orange County. The county is home to internationally famous amusement parks like Disneyland and Knott's Berry Farm and is also right next to Los Angeles and its many millions of people. Southern California is a vast metropolis encompassing several counties, and Placentia is just a tiny part. The community of Placentia is an interesting mixture of suburbia and urban sprawl, with excellent access to freeways and job centers like Anaheim and Orange. Many residents in Placentia commute during the week to jobs throughout Orange County. The city was once well-known for its proximity to the citrus industry and local farms, but the neighborhoods and apartments throughout Placentia have become more suburban rather than rural over the last half-century.

Why live in Placentia, CA?

One of the best reasons to consider Placentia for your future apartment home is that the community offers a perfect balance between quiet suburbia and the big city. You're never far from anything when you live in Southern California, and Placentia is an excellent choice for anyone interested in living in a suburban environment that's just an hour away from the beach or mountains. If you drive west, you'll greet the gorgeous Pacific and Orange County's famous beaches. If you drive northeast, you'll see beautiful mountain cities like Big Bear and Lake Arrowhead. And beyond the benefits of nearby recreation, Placentia is also a solid place to live for commuters who work in larger cities of Orange County like Anaheim, Huntington Beach, and Orange.
