Alta Mesa is an inland residential community located a few blocks west of Downtown Santa Barbara. The streets are lined with houses, apartments, townhomes, and condos, with rental options available to suit any taste. Locals enjoy ample opportunities to spend quality time outdoors: Honda Valley occupies the center of the neighborhood, the huge Elings Park borders the west side, and Santa Barbara’s gorgeous beaches are only a couple of blocks away. A small shopping plaza at the corner of Cliff Drive and Meigs Road features a handful of supermarkets and cafes: start your day with coffee and breakfast at Good Cup, chow down on some vegetarian fare at Mesa Verde, or dig into some tacos at Super Cuca’s. Santa Barbara City College sits on the east end of the neighborhood, making it a great spot for students, faculty, and staff members.
