Oceanside is a spectacular beachfront community, centrally located in the heart of the beautiful Southern California coastline.  Oceanside, California is among the region's best places to escape the hustle and bustle of the crowded cities. Considered the gateway city between metropolitan San Diego and Los Angeles, Oceanside's near-perfect climate invites visitors to revel and relax at the 3.5 miles of white sandy beaches. Step back in time by visiting the historic Mission San Luis Rey de Francia, the "King of the Missions", and Heritage Park.

Neighborhoods: 

Oceanside has many distinct neighborhoods, each with a unique character. The older coastal neighborhood, west of I-5, has everything from condominiums and apartments to smaller houses and luxurious ocean-front Oceanside homes at relative bargain prices. New row-style beach homes are going up everywhere and have really transitioned downtown Oceanside into an upscale residential community.
 
Going east, you'll find a transitional area of homes and older retail strip centers, built in the 1950s and 1960s. This region gives way to the inland suburban neighborhoods, which are exploding with new, affordable housing. The median Oceanside home price is only two-thirds that of Carlsbad or Encinitas.
 
Lots of affordable land has spawned new subdivisions in eastern Oceanside making the dream of owning Oceanside real estate come true for young families and retirees, alike. New Oceanside schools and shopping malls are springing up at every corner. Here you'll find a vast collection of "big box" stores such as Walmart, Target and Best Buy.
