Costa Mesa is a creative and centrally located city, home to South Coast Plaza, Segerstrom Center for the Arts, and a thriving culinary scene along 17th Street and the SoCo district. Its busy commercial intersections and freeway-adjacent corridors give student drivers essential practice for everyday Orange County driving. Our Fullerton office is about 20 minutes away, and our Laguna Hills office is also accessible via the 73 toll road.
Our Fullerton office at 112 E Amerige Ave is 20 min from our Fullerton office.
