Great family living near Pacific Ocean - 9/26/2010
San Juan Capistrano has managed to retain it's small town charm, it's history & it's equestrian heritage - no small feat for a town in California with nearby Pacific Ocean access. A great & safe place to live; many wonderful schools both public & private are here. The city maintains miles of scenic biking & hiking paths. The downtown which centers around the mission is charming, has some wonderful shops & restaurants. Besides the mission, the centerpiece of the town is the train station which brings hundreds of visitors daily to explore the area centering around the quaint Los Rios historic district.
San Juan Capistrano is surrounded by lovely hills which are for the most part undeveloped (per city master plan) so that there is an undisturbed quality to the ridgeline.
San Juan Capistrano has a rich & full cultural offering ranging from theater to concert, to 4th of July fireworks.

Nearby Laguna Beach, Dana Point and San Clemente have great restaurants. The city feels like going back to California 100 years ago. Almost Read More

A Wonderful Temperate Climate.... - 2/26/2007
Here in Capistrano, the weather is very comfortable. Year round the temperature is very "livable"--seldom tooooo hot or few frost nites.
Being on the coast, we get the wonderful sea breezes. It has long been
a good area for agriculture--tho ther isn't much left in the area. We
do still have an occasional farmers market and the locally grown produce
