Santa Paula real estate is surrounded by hills and mountains and the last of the great citrus greenbelts in Southern California. Santa Paula is the heart of the Ventura County agricultural industry. It is also one of the last remaining historic downtowns in the southern half of California. The people of Santa Paula live the word "community". When you think of Hometown USA, do you think of Main Street, well kept homes and tree-lined streets with neighbors who wave to each other? If that is your mental image, then you have just seen Santa Paula. The City is doing a wonderful job at preserving a vanishing way of life in our modern America.
Historic downtown is everything downtown used to be. It is almost like stepping back in time. All of the buildings are original storefronts and are well maintained, neat and clean inside and out. The family-owned businesses of downtown meet you with a smile and a friendly "come-on-in". Santa Paula real estate is 100 years old now and, for their centennial, the City removed the "modern lights" and replaced them with the "old-fashioned kind" as well as putting in planters and benches along the sidewalks. The City took an area that was already near-perfect and improved it. Downtown is also famous for its murals. They are absolutely superb. Currently, there are seven of these murals which depict the people and the town on the sides of various buildings.
