Oceanside

Oceanside is a thriving community that provides all the conveniences of a modern city without the disadvantages. Located just 40 miles north of San Diego and 83 miles south of Los Angeles, and, 16 miles south of San Clemente/Orange County, Oceanside offers a unique combination of outstanding location, well-priced available land and multiple resources. California's main highway, Interstate 5, runs through Oceanside, as does Highway 78, which provides southeast access to Interstate 15. Highway 76, which runs northeast, also provides access to Interstate 15. With the Los Angeles area to the north and the San Diego/Tijuana area to the south, Oceanside enjoys proximity to all major Southern California destinations, while at the same time maintaining its coastal beauty and autonomy.

The northern most city in San Diego County, Oceanside is transforming itself from the backyard of Camp Pendleton´s Marine Corps base into a vibrant business and tourism center.  Persons living here can work either in North San Diego or Southern Orange County without long commutes.  Oceanside has an affordable supply of new housing and condominium developments, including two retirement communities.  The Harbor and Marina is a great place to relax and the 2,000 foot pier is one of the longest wooden piers on the West Cost.  Finally, the San Luis Rey Mission has stood nearly 200 years as a symbol of the Spanish Jesuits who founded the region.

Single family homes range from high $300,000 to $800,000, and of course the luxurious properties would go over $2 or $3 million.  Attached properties are priced from $250,000 to $500,000.
