Santa Barbara is home to a wide array of neighborhoods. Each one has its own history, architecture, and culture. Choosing the right one for yourself is not an easy task. That is why we at Long Distance Moving Experts have put together a list of the city’s neighborhoods for you to choose from:

  • The Mesa. Located in close vicinity to Santa Barbara City College, this neighborhood is great for college kids. It is only a short walk away from the ocean, which makes it quite desirable.
  • Mission Canyon. If you enjoy being in touch with the nature, spending time in the great outdoors, and hiking in your free time, this is the perfect place for you. This is probably one of the most scenic areas of the city.
  • The Riviera. This neighborhood strongly resembles Mediterranean coastal towns of Italy. That is actually how it got its name. Due to the area’s geography, homes in the Riviera have breathtaking ocean-front views. Needless to say, these come at a considerable price.
  • The Westside. Another great neighborhood for those who are coming to Santa Barbara for school, the Westside is home to the Santa Barbara City College. It is located between the State Street and the Mesa.
