However, with plenty of co-ops, apartment homes, and condos for sale, one can still find fairly affordable options.
Initially, the area now known as Seal Beach was called 'Anaheim Landing', and served as a boat landing and seaside recreation area named after the nearby city of Anaheim. That site is now registered as a California Historical Landmark. By the 20th century, Anaheim Landing became Bay City. However, there was already a Bay City in Northern California. When the time to incorporate finally arrived in 1915, it was finally named 'Seal Beach'.
For the next several decades Seal Beach thrived as a recreation destination. As a matter of fact, it was the site for the area's first beach-side amusement park, known as The Joy Zone, and erected in 1916.
During World War II, the United States Navy's Naval Weapons Station Seal Beach was constructed for loading, unloading, and ammunition storage. Today, this facility serves as the primary source of munitions for a major part of the U.S. Pacific Fleet.

Wide sandy beaches serve as great surf spots, and conditions are often ideal for kitesurfing, windsurfing, and other water-based recreation. Notably, it's home to the second longest pier in the state of California.
Meanwhile, its convenient location places it only 28 miles east of Los Angeles, between the popular cities Long Beach and Huntington Beach.
