Real Estate & Development Market

Real estate drone photography demand in Anaheim is driven by active development:

Anaheim is the construction hub of Orange County, driven by Disneyland Resort expansion (DisneylandForward project), Honda Center area redevelopment (OC VIBE! project), and the Platinum Triangle mixed-use development around Angel Stadium. The Anaheim Resort District continues to see hotel and entertainment construction. Residential development in the Anaheim Hills area and along the Santa Ana River corridor generates steady demand. The ARTIC transit center is driving transit-oriented development. Platinum Triangle development is one of the largest urban infill projects in Orange County, with residential towers, office space, and retail.

The Anaheim metro is the construction hub of Orange County, driven by Disneyland Resort expansion, Platinum Triangle mixed-use development around Angel Stadium, Honda Center area redevelopment, and residential construction in Anaheim Hills. The FAA permanent TFR around Disneyland creates one of the most restricted drone airspace environments in the US.
