An Orange County suburb with sprawling yardage
Despite being in the heart of Orange County, Villa Park residents feel like they have estates in the serene countryside, with spacious lots and a quintessential small-town feel. “Probably the biggest reason people move here is the space. Villa Park’s lot sizes are larger than the vast majority of Orange County cities. They’re roughly half–acre lots or larger,” says Realtor Steve Thomas who works with Thomas Real Estate Group and has over a decade of experience in the area. Located four miles north of downtown Orange, Villa Park is home to about 6,000 residents, making it the smallest city in Orange County. It covers about two square miles, making it geographically tiny as well — but it’s not an area to gloss over. “It’s an absolute hidden gem in so many different ways. It’s a quiet little area with very nice homes on big lots, and there are great schools,” says Realtor Daniel Finder, who has over a decade of experience and works with the Finder Group and EQTY Forbes Global Properties.
The real estate market in Villa Park tends to be upscale, with homes commanding high prices.
Villa Park was incorporated as a city on January 11, 1962, making it the smallest city in OC.

Renovated and contemporary homes
Established in 1962, the town has a spread-out suburban feel, from winding roads to tranquil cul-de-sacs. Residents may feel extra secure with a 1 out of 10 crime score on the CAP Index, compared to a 4 out of 10 average in the United States. It only has single-family homes, no apartment or condo buildings. There are also limited streetlights and sidewalks, meaning the area isn’t very walkable. However, this is a product of the roomy front yards, with manicured green grass and landscaped flora, plus backyards with enough space for private pools. As a matter of fact, many Villa Park homes include their own pools. Older homes are often renovated; exteriors are well-maintained, with fresh coats of paint and upgrades like brick walkways. The architecture varies from midcentury ranch-style homes to larger contemporary houses. In terms of pricing, the former range from $1.4 million to $4.5 million, while the latter start from $5.3 million and go up to $6.2 million. No matter the home style, it may prove difficult to get a home in Villa Park currently. “There’s a very tight inventory,” Thomas says. “Availability in Villa Park has been very limited since before COVID-19 but more so after COVID because there’s been a trend toward less density, and Villa Park is exactly that.”
Villa Park is known for its strong sense of community and small-town feel.
If you ever wondered if Villa Park residents have airplanes hanging inside their homes, they do.

Strip mall retail
Villa Park Town Center has the essentials to complete a weekly to-do list. At Ralphs, residents can pick up groceries, then deposit a check at Wells Fargo or Bank of America. The strip mall also features local restaurants. “I would suggest Rockwell's or Yang Ming as good picks for a Villa Park experience,” Thomas says. Rockwell's Bakery began as a neighborhood bakery in 1987 has grown to include menus of American food in a sophisticated atmosphere. At Yang Ming, patrons can order Chinese classics in a relaxed setting.
Rockwell's Cafe is situated in the heart of Villa Park, and serves as a community hub.
Locals of Villa Park gather at Yang Ming as a community to catch up and dine together.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

The community consists of older people. They are mostly conservative or independent. They care about their city; i see many of them do their morning walks and pick up trash on their way.

This is a hidden jewel, we have one shopping center no apartments or condos schools are all in walking distance and everyone around here walks and rides bikes. The only thing the conservatives are hard nose older people but still good people. I love that the new owners coming in are a mix of people. Very safe place to live. Not a lot of night life here and it is very expensive because it's hard to find large lots like these in the O.C

Caring supportive community. Public facilities are a bit dated, but people are working on updating the school facilities to modernize them for the youth here.
