The Anaheim Resort District is a mixed-use area anchored by Disneyland and nearby convention facilities. It sits in the heart of Anaheim's tourism and entertainment corridor, drawing visitors year-round but also serving as a residential neighborhood for people who work in hospitality, retail, and entertainment.
The district has a distinctly urban feel with moderate density and plenty of amenities for dining and services within a short walk. However, the area experiences heavy vehicle traffic from both local commuters and resort visitors, and sits in a high-pollution corridor typical of Orange County's busier commercial zones.
Living here
Day-to-day life here centers on walkable shopping, dining, and recreation. You can handle coffee, groceries, and meals on foot or a short bike ride, with about 12 restaurants within a short walk and parks like Zocalo Park and London Park nearby. Fitness gyms and coffee spots are also convenient.
A car is strongly recommended if you live here. While you can walk for errands, the area has minimal public transit (no nearby rail stations) and heavy traffic, especially during peak tourist seasons. The tradeoff is affordability relative to other walkable parts of Orange County and proximity to major employers in the hospitality and entertainment sectors.
Who it's for
This area suits people who work in or around Disneyland, the Convention Center, or nearby hotels, or who want walkable amenities at a moderate price without needing frequent transit access. It works best for renters with a car and tolerance for congestion and air quality challenges. Families and service workers in the hospitality industry often find the convenience and rent levels (around $1,961 for current residents) appealing.
