Living in California starts with knowing what to expect. Whether you’re planning a cross-country move, house-hunting in a new city, or just trying to figure out which neighborhood actually fits your life — we’re here to help you make sense of it all.
We publish city guides that go beyond the highlight reel. You’ll find honest breakdowns of what it costs to live in places like Irvine, Sacramento, and San Diego — from median home prices and commute times to school ratings and local quirks that only residents know about. We cover housing market trends, mortgage insights, and first-time buyer basics so you can make informed decisions without needing a real estate license to understand the jargon.
Living in California means navigating a state that’s as complex as it is beautiful. Coastal fog and desert heat. Tech hubs and farming towns. Million-dollar condos and surprisingly affordable neighborhoods an hour inland. We cover all of it — because no two California experiences look the same.
LivingInCalifornia.com is based in Irvine, CA and built by people who actually live here.
