Huntington Beach, CA

Discover the Orange County city that defines Southern California. A place where the quintessential mild and mellow California beach culture that made the state famous still perseveres; where pretentiousness takes a back seat to casual and cool; where the true trendsetters of West Coast fashion, food and lifestyle reside. Huntington City Beach is a 3.5-mile stretch of pristine shoreline. Popularly known as "Surf City," Huntington Beach is home to the world famous municipal pier, and is a west coast surf mecca for more than 8 million annual visitors. Whether enjoying an evening at one of our fire pits or enjoying a day at a professional sporting event such as the U.S. Open of Surfing, "Surf City" offers a variety of exceptional, recreational, cultural, and entertainment opportunities.

Find trendy threads at the Bella Terra mall and 5 Points Plaza, or discover real-deal California beach gear like Quiksilver at authentic surf shops. Chow down on California beach-style grub or wine and dine at upscale eateries. Unwind and romance in luxury Huntington Beachhotels, let loose with downtown nightlife or relax in an abundance of parks and preserves.

The City of Huntington Beach operates 70 parks totaling 750 acres.  In addition, the 98-acre Meadowlark Golf Course is also located within Huntington Beach.  The City of Huntington Beach has rental facilities available to the public.  Rooms and large halls can be rented for various occasions.  Room rental facilities are located at the Municipal Art Center, City Gym & Pool, Murdy Community Center, Edison Community Center, Senior Center as well as three clubhouses, Harbor View Clubhouse, Lakeview Clubhouse, and Lake Park Clubhouse.  The city’s Newland Barn, located within Bartlett Park, also has a hall with historical gardens and gazebo available for rent.

The district’s high expectations for students and the staff are reflected in high API scores and student performance levels. Our schools are frequent recipients of many local, state, and federal awards and honors, including recognition as California Distinguished Schools and National Blue Ribbon Schools.

Real Estate Tips

Time to Move >Children and Moves

When you decide it is time to move, it is important to engage your children in the process. Depending on the reason for the move and the distance, moving can cause some concerns for children that parents may not be aware of right away. Moving often means going to a new school, leaving favorite playmates, and experiencing a lot of uncertainty about what the new neighborhood will be like.

The transition will be a lot easier if your children support your efforts to get your current home sold. How can you get them involved in the process? Include the whole family in discussions about the move and invite the children to participate in house-hunting trips. Ask for the children's cooperation in keeping their toys and clothes picked up. Teenagers may be especially touchy about strangers invading their space, and may resist keeping their room in "showing" condition. Stay communicative with your children about developments in the home sale to help them feel connected to the process.

Work with a real estate agent who is comfortable with children and can remain sensitive to your children's needs and concerns. When the house sells, take the whole family out to celebrate the event.
