In Fountain Valley we mostly see regular-lot stucco tracts, mostly 1960s and 1970s.
Weather and Season
Only six miles from the water, this city lives with marine air and morning low cloud. Freezes almost never come. A major fault passes close on the southwest side, so a look for cracks is reasonable on a chimney of this age.
Same Drive
Midway City, Costa Mesa, Huntington Beach sit on the same stretch of road, so a visit there often shares the day with Fountain Valley.
