Best and worst neighborhoods in Brea
I'm originally from Seattle and Rent is about $2,285/month for a decent place. The median home value here is around $874,300, which is pretty steep. It's a a smaller city city with about 47,337 people. Median household income is $124,837, which feels pretty solid for the area. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Night life is decent if you know the right spots.
Pros:
- Affordable cost of living
- Low crime in most areas
- Good schools
- Strong sense of community
Cons:
- Traffic can be terrible
- Few job opportunities in some fields
- Chain restaurants dominate
- Homelessness issues downtown
- Not enough green space
