Neighborhood Review
Key Words: Condo Community, Circular Layout, Affordable Entry

La Buena Vida is a condominium community in East Davis, set in a circular layout next to the Wildhorse area off Pole Line Road. Built in the early 1970s, it runs about 272 units in small four-plex buildings, a distinct form from the single-family blocks around it. It is a lower-maintenance, more affordable way into Davis, with the trade-offs that come with the vintage: each home gets half of a shared two-car garage and buildings share laundry. The location is the upside, close to East Davis schools, the Pole Line retail, and the greenbelt network. The honest framing is that this is dense, dated-but-functional condo stock, not a detached-home street. For buyers who want a Davis address without a single-family price, that is exactly the appeal.
