"Old Town charm near Vandenberg"

Smaller than Santa Maria, easier to get to base - Orcutt is a really charming area to live. We rented here for a year before moving over to Santa Maria - but loved the small town vibe here, especially in Old Town. Loved going to Rooney's Irish Pub and Kay's breakfast - best omelettes in town.

Really charming place to live, solid housing market, if you bought a home here - it will likely do well as a rental too.

Pros Cons
  1. Lovely Old Town area
  2. Lots of sidewalks/jogging opportunities
  1. If buying, can be expensive, homes sell quickly
  2. Watch out for short sales/foreclosures. Often heavily-damaged homes
