The main association with the city of Anaheim, California is of course, Disneyland! However, Anaheim California has much more to offer in attractions and amenities or in living environment specifics, all of which seem to contribute to the youthfulness of the area and of the people there. Only a 37.6-mile trip away is Los Angeles, offering the plentiful and varied array of entertainment, shopping, food and sports that depart from the Disney theme, if one desires a break. Interesting, too, are the demographics. For example, did you know that the median age in Anaheim is 30.3 years? Maybe the atmosphere lends itself to youthfulness, then.

About a third of Anaheim residents work in Anaheim, California, leaving the other 60 or so percent to commute further away.
For many the affordability is only complimented by the climate. Average temperatures are in the eighties, with less than a couple of inches of rainfall in fewer than four months out of the year.
