Anyone else love living in Brea?
Been meaning to ask this. I'm retired and It's a a smaller city city with about 47,337 people. Homes are going for about $874,300 on average. Crime rate is something to consider -Brea sits at 163.1 per 100K. With a population of 47,337, Brea is a smaller city. Rent is about $2,285/month for a decent place. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. It's not perfect, but the community is solid.
Pros:
- Diverse community
- Good healthcare facilities
- Walkable downtown
- Plenty of shopping options
Cons:
- Limited public transit
- Limited dining options
- Limited cultural events
