Although Thousand Oaks has a downtown area (focused around the Janss shopping center, the Oaks Mall, and Thousand Oaks Blvd.), a large portion of the city's inhabitants live in suburban communities a distance from the commercial centers of the city. The large housing districts near Lynn Rd. to the north and west are an example of this sprawl, despite attempts by Ventura County planners to reduce it.

In professional sports, the city is home to the Sherwood Country Club, a world-class golf course designed by Jack Nicklaus. The course hosts an annual golf tournament hosted by Tiger Woods.

The city regularly ranks as the first or second safest large city (population greater than 100,000) in the United States in annual surveys (the main competition being nearby Simi Valley).
