Living in Santa Ana, California

The desirable climate and stunning location in the heart of Orange County, California make Santa Ana an enviable location to relocate to, whether it is on a temporary basis or a long term move. Beautiful parks and historic places of interest mean that there is no shortage of things to do, and with beaches just twenty minutes away you don’t have to go far to entertain yourself. The dense population includes a growing number of expats in Santa Ana who enjoy the privilege of working in a different country and experiencing a new culture. Santa Ana boasts excellent living standards so you will be within easy reach of all your home comforts. Whatever your hobbies are, you will be sure to find an outlet for them here, or if you just want to relax, you have the options of surfing, swimming or sun bathing on the idyllic beaches by the Pacific Ocean. When you get a break from work, try visiting the Bowers Museum, with exhibits dating back to the 1930’s and learn about the history of the indigenous people.

A modern and bustling city just twenty minutes from the beach with excellent transport routes and a heavenly climate, the draw towards living in this city, provided you get the opportunity, can be great.

Fit in with the lively city life straight away and appreciate the beauty of the idyllic surroundings on the outskirts of the city at every opportunity. Before moving to Santa Ana, you can use the forums and discussion groups on the InterNations site to find out more about your future host city and to get some advice about moving to the US in general.
