Costa Mesa California - article about Costa Mesa California

Like most southern coast cities and towns, Costa Mesa, California is as beautiful as its name.

But Costa Mesa, California is still a city with relatively low crime rates and relatively high morale. The weather is mild. The natural scenery is classic. There are twenty-six parks and recreation areas, and a popular golf course (the Costa Mesa Golf and Country Club). There is a hub of shopping and activity—where a tenth of the community spends its day catering to the public and to visitors to architecturally renowned South Coast Plaza (also remarkable for its 300+ stores).

More entertainment makes Costa Mesa, California singularly popular, not only with its Orange County Performing Arts Center and South Coast Repertory Theatre, but for its annual hosting of the Orange County Fair at the Orange County Fairgrounds, where over a million attend one of the biggest fairs in the state.

If, as I have, you get the opportunity to tour Costa Mesa, California, you will be impressed with how the urban and rural have melded over the years to offer a striking balance of country and city, of work and play. You might prefer the Twilight Tour and Train Ride, which will expose you to the sweet underbelly of the place. You might get lucky and happen upon the local artists at a gem, jewelry, and bead show or the Sugar Plum Arts and Crafts Festival. You might hit one of the nighttime concerts in the park (Fairview, for example), or attend the annual Lounge Chair Theatre. Or, you might get very lucky and have the chance to rub elbows with one the superstars of Costa Mesa origin, like Zach Wells, the major league soccer player for the MetroStars, whom you can invite for a dip in the Pacific…which is only about a mile away.
