Full Breakdown
Anaheim generally allows overnight parking on public streets within the 72-hour maximum parking limit. However, specific neighborhoods near the Disneyland Resort, Angel Stadium, and Honda Center have Residential Permit Parking programs to address visitor overflow. In permit parking zones, overnight parking without a valid permit may result in citation. Street sweeping schedules require vehicles to be moved on designated days. Some streets have posted no-parking restrictions during nighttime hours. The city approved new Residential Permit Parking rules allowing eligible neighborhoods to petition for permit zones. Permit program details are available through the city's Transportation Division. Visitors to Anaheim should use designated parking facilities near attractions rather than residential streets.
