Updated June 22, 2026 · 587 residents

Key Highlights
About Cedar Evergreen Co-Op
The neighborhood is a small, tightly-knit community with a population of approximately 587 residents. It functions as a dense suburban pocket where single-family residential blocks sit adjacent to large-scale industrial facilities, including warehouses and storage infrastructure. The area maintains a relatively low-key atmosphere, punctuated by local dining options like Cowgirls Cafe and Birrieria Nochistlan, though it lacks a high density of commercial activity within walking distance.
Living in this area involves specific trade-offs, particularly regarding acoustic comfort and privacy. Homes are situated in close proximity to one another, and the ambient noise levels are high due to constant road traffic. While the neighborhood features a public park with green space and ball fields in the northwest, prospective residents should note the industrial surroundings and the current state of local school performance within the Santa Ana Unified School District. It is best suited for those prioritizing proximity to major transit routes and industrial employment hubs over secluded living.
Neighborhood Scores Across 15 Qualities
Residential structures are closely packed with minimal separation between homes. According to iHuus data, this lack of space results in less privacy than is typical for the Santa Ana area.
Pedestrian access is excellent due to continuous sidewalks on both sides of streets and clearly marked crossings at major intersections. This level of walkability is notably higher than the Santa Ana average according to iHuus data.
Standard tract housing defines the area, featuring uniform rooflines and small yards. This visual landscape is largely consistent with the broader Santa Ana average.
Walking opportunities for pets vary across the area. While the northwest corner offers access to a public park with ball fields, some residential streets have narrow verges and limited nearby green space, making the area slightly below the Santa Ana average for dog friendliness.

Cedar Evergreen Co-Op Rankings
School Districts Serving Cedar Evergreen Co-Op
Santa Ana Unified School District is a district in transition, earning a 3/5 due to its distinct 'split' personality and significant fiscal pressures. While it manages to produce elite results at flagship institutions like Middle College High and successfully secured a $350 million modernization bond, the operational health is strained by a decade-long 28% enrollment drop and a massive block of underperforming elementary and intermediate schools. Proficiency rates remain low, and chronic absenteeism is a persistent issue; however, stable leadership and positive trends in graduation and college readiness prevent the district from falling into the 'Distressed' category. It remains an average performer that is effectively a 'tale of two districts' regarding its internal academic consistency.
