Newport Mesa Real Estate

Costa Mesa was originally called Harper, which often got confused with Haperville, a town just up the road. The residents wanted a name that better described what the area was like, so in 1920 they held a contest and offered a prize of $25 to the person who came up with the best name. Teacher Alice Plumer won the contest with the name "Costa Mesa" meaning "coastal tableland." This is a reference to the city's geography as being a plateau by the coast. On July 16, 1920, the city officially became Costa Mesa. Today, with its southernmost border only one mile from the Pacific Ocean, Costa Mesa has evolved from a town with agricultural roots to become a world-class center for fashion with South Coast Plaza, a mecca for the arts with Segerstrom Center for the Arts and a renowned dining destination with a slew of world class restaurants. The Newport Mesa area borders Newport Beach and has become very popular among residents as more affordable than Newport, yet has the same, great location benefits.
