- It is hard to imagine a more idyllic setting than the tiny seaside village of Montecito. One of the nation's wealthiest communities, it communicates its grandeur with understated elegance and sublime sophistication. It is certainly an A-list locale without an oversized attitude.
With approximately 10,000 residents and 3,000 households, Montecito retains much of its original charm but with the niceties of a contemporary, stylish community. Just east of Santa Barbara, the area is nestled between the sea and the picturesque foothills known as the Santa Ynez Mountain Range. This natural boundary leaves no room for growth or urban sprawl, sustaining high property values and a thriving community. Architectural styles vary, offering something for everyone-picture-book cottages, elegant Italian villas, oceanfront estates and most everything in-between. Montecito presents discreet, tree-lined lanes, leading both to its grand estates and its bucolic hiking trails.
For families, Montecito offers two exceptional public schools and an array of private school options. Exemplary weather (temperatures between sixty five and seventy five degrees nearly year round) allows for abundant outdoor activities such as hiking, biking, horseback riding and surfing twelve months a year!
Coast Village Road offers premiere shopping and dining, with everything from traditional Italian trattorias to authentic Mexican cantinas. Shoppers will enjoy the contemporary clothing boutiques, vintage shops and classic antique stores, most within walking distance of each other. Butterfly Beach, with its white sand and relaxing ocean breezes is perfect for strolling, swimming, lounging or dog walking. The ideal location to call "home," pastoral Montecito is ever pristine and always waiting.

i lived in monterey carmel california for 3 years, , 300 miles north of la,, what a paradise, montecito looks nice, havent been there, but i would still favor monterey carmel
my thoughts and prayers go out to the Riskin family friends and Neighbors she was a wonderful asset to our community and will be missed by all who had the opportunity to be blessed bye her presents.
I remember when I lived in montecito, because I worked for Rusty´s Pizza. I really like it however now I live in Mexico City I will never forget that nice experience.
Thank you for this wonderful video.. if it wasn't for this many of us would not have known what Montecito was like before the mudslides .
I have come many times to Montecito to the famous Biltmore Four Seasons Hotel and had tea. My visit in this whole entire area has always been very special and Blessed to me.
What a beautiful legacy to this woman.
It's the day after the mudslides and the recent fire, I just can't believe this incredible place has been reduced to ash and mud. Something is happening here and Im really not sure what it is?
Beautiful place. Very nice people. So sad for the victims of the mudslides, may God rest their souls.
I once drove for a woman with elegance from Montecito, she would always tell me,do not advertise Santa Barbara.Now everyone is here.I now see her point.

Right up my alley
Beautiful
Woooow ! just perfect

This Santa Barbara suburb is one of the best places to live in America. Clean,safe,very white, beautiful nature,Pacific ocean beaches,close but still away from LA,great weather & very expensive . Perfect place to call home if you have a lot of money.
hhhrolling safe????
Yes it is a very beautiful place. But deadly too. Every place has its own pitfalls.
@@Polarbear-zy6vf yes, the mudslides were awful, and wildfires.. what about earthquakes, i don't know, or even dangers of tsunamis. It looks pretty but living there a long time would be a bit boring after a while.
@@beaulieuonnp593 People who live there have the money to go somewhere more exciting as the mood takes them.
Montecito is a dream land. Moved there in 2007 with hopes of a house and starting my family. It left me broke and unable to live a basic life. If you move there you better have a fat bank account and work from home, becasue there is no where to earn money there. Even the rich are land poor.
+Goldbeach1999 PS. I forgot to mention the "blue hairs." LOL!
Michael McCann Michael, If you are alive & well, I hope & pray,...consider yourself "LiFE RiCh"...for I heard there was a Landslide/Mudslide(?)...that took lives. strange how life, The Life You were planning and wanted, left you broke and unable to keep your head above water. I hope in life, You Are Safe HealthY, HappY and that you live with ease.
I don't want to comment or talk out of line but after reading your comment and now realizing what happened, in a place you once wanted to live, MaY have saved your life by NOT working out. PeaCefAithlOVe

Yourtube sorry, I can't help myself, lol! 🙃😀🙃
yes, good point. Fortunes come and go. Does look like not many jobs there
Thanks for information ....
So sad the narrator of this video has lost her life to this town she loved.
Can this be true ? Did the narrator of this really die when they had the mudslides ?
I am so very sorry...
Homes there are up in the multi millions. It would take a million dollar a year income to afford to live there. Yet, not everyone in Montecito is a movie star. Where are they getting these million dollar a year jobs in Santa Barbara? I never see these positions advertised. I'd like to get one of those jobs. Where do you apply?
the horrible mudslide left many people dead and many more homeless. and with the wildfires. however when you wrote your comment 4 years ago, I would ask the same question all the time and I still do. where the F do people get all this money? I see people driving brand new cars loaded with everything possible from the ground up from the inside out and homes that to me I just don't know how they can afford them or the things in them. I live on the east coast and the West Coast of Florida. one of my favorite homes is owned by a doctor here in my county and he invited a film crew into his home and he explained why he built his home how he builds his home and Through the Years of traveling how he accomplished his goals and places he visited, he has an eclectic and diverse collection of things and artifacts in his home that go together beautifully as beautiful as his home.
but there are so many large million-dollar homes multimillion-dollar homes and just like you said there isn't a job out there advertised that can sustain a home or a lifestyle like the ones we see so many of. strange. I think it's strange. you gotta be crooked? 🙄 😒 at least some of 'em?... 🤔 😞 🙃
@@ms.mojo_risin agreed.
Simple old money!
@@ms.mojo_risin Simple old money!
I'm to poor to live there
Wow that looks beautiful. I am from Switzerland and am planning to retire in a sunnier climate all year. What kind of income do I need to live there. I am not going to retire with millions of dollars. But I will have a decent monthly income. Can somebody give me advice?
Check to see how much the rental is for houses and apartments firs. You have to be quite wealthy to live there,
Definitely have to be a millionaire.
If you are from switzerland then you need to have millions. Shouldn't be to hard for you to amass from that country. Get yourself a property in Zurich and Geneva, rent them out for 10 years and then sale them.
Yeah, win the lottery!
How easy is it to find a job in a cafe? How much would a nice two bedroom apartment cost, overlooking the sea? And is it possible as a Brit to get a visa etc?
“Urban spraw” is a derogatory term and I will definitely let people know you feel!
I need to get me some Oprah money
Yo what do we see
What do you mean by that
Are u drunk or high?

I'm sorry.. I know I'm going to sound like I'm this horrible person but one of my worst pet peeves is when people use the word " an " inappropriately .
there is no letter " n "before a consonant .
A second home... can't you hear the difference..? If it was a word that started with the letter A , E I , O ,U .. in other words of vowels then yes you would say " an".
For example an elegant home
Or an aerie and spacious home
or an Italian style home ,
An older home ,
An unusual home .
I know I must sound like a real pain in the butt and likewise it drives me nuts when people say "a" when they should be staying "an " for example they might say a older home or a unusual home ... and it sounds horrible to listen to such an abuse of English language.
All I can tell you is I don't know why this irritates me so much but it really does almost more than any other language abuse I can think of except for when people say could " of " instead of could 've.. which is actually could " have " not could of and not should of .
Sorry I just had to say something
@@gardensofthegods You sound like a prig, like me.
@@gardensofthegods it could have been a typo.
@@beverly5886 I'm just noticing your comment now Beverly ... the weird thing is I was reading the comment for the person made the grammatical error and I was ready to tell them its " a " ,
not " an" ... and j ust then I saw the lengthy comment I wrote two years ago .
Yes I guess I'm just like you because I can't stand it when people do that and say things like "an second home " .
@@gardensofthegods life is too short for that.
never going to california omg the homeless everyone in the world is talking about the homeless.......like nowhere else.....how can anyone live in that state??
A lot better than the dump where you live!
People hear "California" and they think of two places: Los Angeles and San Francisco. These are two tiny dots on a gigantic state. California has the 5th largest economy in the world. Not the U.S. but the world. There are hundreds of cities and towns and villages, most of them rural and agrarian. There is a lot to California besides L.A. and S.F.
