About
Pacific
Pacific, located between Arcata Plaza and the Arcata Community Forest, is a residential and campus-adjacent Arcata neighborhood with a walkable grid and redwood-framed greenbelts. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Arcata Plaza at 9th St and G St, where bookstores, coffee counters, and small galleries set a steady street-level hum. Architectural cues lean Craftsman bungalows, compact mid-century homes, and student-era rentals mixed with newer infill. Humboldt State University (Cal Poly Humboldt) brings bike traffic and a calendar of lectures and performances. Arcata Theatre Lounge and the Arcata Playhouse anchor nights out without feeling loud. Redwood Park and the Community Forest trails keep the air cool and the pace outdoorsy.
