Lemon Grove
In Lemon Grove you are super close to the Pacific View mall and lots of shops, restaurants and hangouts on Main Street. We love this part of town with all of its fun stores, restaurants and businesses including Jest Improv and The Grape. Homes range from the high 600s to 1.5 million.
Loma Vista
The homes closer to Main Street have a busier feel as compared to homes further north and uphill near the Ventura County Medical Center.
There is a mix of homes from older tract homes from the 50's-60's all the way up to the 90's and new custom builds. Homes range from the mid-800's to almost 3 million.

Conclusion
We get calls so frequently from people who want to move to Ventura, and specifically to Midtown.
It makes sense because Midtown has so many benefits, including a mix of historic and modern homes, scenic views and a friendly atmosphere. It offers a variety of activities, entertainment and outdoor recreation (since it is so close to the foothills and the nearby beautiful beaches).
