Los-Medanos Reviews & Questions

Neighborhood Review
Key Words: Fairgrounds Adjacent, Bargain Pricing, Border Zone

Los Medanos is Antioch's northwest gateway, the blocks along West 10th Street where the city runs into Pittsburg. The county fairgrounds, now branded the Contra Costa Event Park, sit right here at 1201 West 10th Street, bringing the county fair, swap meets, and event-day traffic to the neighborhood's doorstep. The school map shows how much of a border zone this is: some addresses feed Pittsburg's Highlands Elementary while the rest go to Antioch campuses. Housing is older and modest, and prices run among the lowest in the city, which keeps this one of the few real bargain corners left in East County. Highway 4 and the retail around Somersville Road are a short drive, and downtown Rivertown is minutes east. What you give up is polish. The corridor shows its age, fair weekends bring crowds and noise, and curb appeal swings hard from one street to the next. What you get is a detached house at a price that barely exists anywhere else in the Bay Area, with a fairgrounds corn dog within walking distance.
