Located in northern Orange County, Placentia combines small-town charm with convenient city access. This well-connected city, spanning just over 6 square miles, celebrates its rich heritage through historic districts while embracing modern development. The Old Town district, centered around Santa Fe Street and Bradford Avenue, features classic California bungalows and single-family homes, while Placentia Heights offers quiet, tree-lined streets with spacious properties. Residents benefit from the city's strategic location near both the 57 and 91 freeways, providing direct routes to Orange County's business districts and Los Angeles. The upcoming Metrolink station development promises enhanced transportation options. The Bradford Avenue corridor serves as a central hub, offering easy access to local dining spots, specialty shops, and community landmarks like the historic Placentia Library, which has served the community since 1919.
