Our community of Brea is unique in many ways. We have a small town feeling, yet with bigger city benefits. Week-days we normally have over 100,000 people who work and live in our city. Yet the resident population is 39,000-40,000. We have a strong econom
ic base within our business community, take a look at Brea-Means-Business as an example.
Brea is also known for excellence in education. The Brea-Olinda School district is well know for outstanding schools. Many of our schools have been recognized nationally as National Blue Ribbon school. The state-of-the-art Brea-Olinda High School is a "Distinguished School" for 2007.
Folks come to Brea from the surrounding communities to shop till they drop. The Brea Mall is the second highest in Orange County for generating revenue. We also have a newer downtown areas for entertainment and fun. The Birch Street Promenade is a wonderful pedestrian area for the movies, restaurants and outdoor entertainment. As for living downtown, check out the colorful
lofts built over the commercial businesses.
Brea is also known as a community of the arts. The Art-In-Public Places supports over 130 objects of art beautifully enriching the city. Brea's own Art Gallery is home to traveling exhibits on display. Located at the Civic Center, our Curtis Theatre plays host to live productions with a close-up feeling. Check out the 2008 season line up at Curtain Up in Brea.

Hi Shannon,
So nice hearing from you, so how long ago did you leve the OC? My daughter also worked at the Brea Mall some time back. It's a really neat mall, just about the right size for almost anything you could want.
Thanks for the visit and commenting.
Lynda- I love your posts.. I never realized how many things Brea had to offer..
Lynda this is a great post about Brea. I really like those areas that keep the feel of a small town while still having the benefits of a larger city. If this is one of the top five cities in the West, I definitely need to put it on my list of places to see!
Kaye ~ Thanks for such nice words. There's lots to do in our little town, seems like there is always something to do. Thom from my office was at the downtown promonade last week-end, he said it was packed.
Kimberly ~ How nice to hear from you. Come for a visit, love to see you here.
Lynda--Brea looks like a fantastic Southern California community. What a beautiful area with so much to do!

Geno ~ Wow, thanks for stopping by, so how's the coffee? Those of us at the "lower level" of our graduating classes need to stick together. Thank you for your comment and dropping in.
Hello Lynda,
A great post, I felt like a visited your town. Sounds like it has a lot to offer residents and visitors.

Stephanie Wow, what a nice comment, thank you so much! Yep, it's a pretty neat place if I don't mind saying so myself. Thanks for the visit.
Lynda - The Brea Mall was always one of my favorites.
Hey Paula ~ I was just there, looking for a b-day gift for one of my co-workers. You would have thought it was Christmas, the place was packed. Thanks for the visit.
Lynda,
You're right, Brea's the place, but I still miss old Brea.
Hey Thom,
I miss good ole' Brea too! You know the days when Brea Blvd. was a little two lane road and the bar fights from Sam's Place will spill out into the street! Now those were the days!
Brea is a wonderful city to live and visit. Some of the best resturants in the area are in Brea. If you have not enjoyed the BBQ Baby Back Ribs at Lucille's you have no idea what you are missing.
Lynda -Great post for SEO....like your style on this one and the the way it is put together. Extremely insightful. Rated 5 stars!
Ronnie ~ Thanks for the nice visit. And yes we've become a pretty good place for dining and what I call fun eating. Lucille's is great, been there too many times. You're in La Mirada, I love La Mirada.
Bill ~ Thanks so much for the visit and the 5 stars! I just took a look at this and it looks a little short, not sure if I left from of it on the drawing board...hmmm, I'll need to double check.
