Valencia Real Estate
Since its inception, Valencia has honored the slogan that was adopted over forty years ago: “Built as Promised.” In point of fact, Valencia represents a living example of what can be done when growth and development in a community properly are managed. In Valencia, the net result has been the creation of a community that has been dubbed one of the fifty best places to live in the United States. Obviously, this is no small achievement. However, a visit to Valencia will allow you to realize exactly why this tremendous community has garnered this outstanding recognition.
Interestingly, Valencia actually is one of the oldest districts in Santa Clarita. As a result, it does have a rich history and a number of significant cultural and related points of interest that contribute to the gracious livability of the community.
As part of the balance involved in growth and maintaining the natural beauty that is Valencia, the town boosts an amazing eleven parks. In addition, there is a sprawling and intricate paseo system – scenic walkways and bicycle paths that connect all parts of the community. Moreover, a significant number of acres have permanently been set aside as open spaces, including oak woodlands and other natural areas.
Valencia also is a community where neighborhood unity is very important. It is one of the few places in the sprawling Los Angeles County where it truthfully can be said that neighbors really do know one another. In fact, there literally are dozens of neighborhood recreation centers that offer a wide range of activities and programs for people of all ages, many of these opportunities being geared towards the entire family.
Other important and popular venues in Valencia include the Valencia Marketplace, a lively destination where a shopper can find nearly anything imaginable under the temperate Santa Clarita sun. In addition, Six Flags Magic Mountain and Hurricane Harbor is located in the area – one of the most popular amusement parks in North America. Valencia Country Club and TPC at Valencia are also highly regarded for their golf courses and other amenities.
Valencia is also the home of California Institute of the Arts. The nation's first art institute to offer BFAs and MFAs in both the visual and performing arts, CalArts is dedicated to training and nurturing the next generation of professional artists, fostering brilliance and innovation within the broadest context possible. The main campus of the College of the Canyons is also located in Valencia. COC maintains two campuses, one in Valencia and one serving the east side of the valley in Canyon Country,
