Yes, that's correct. The City of Irvine and Lake Forest's goal is simply to make money from builders and continue to extract money from residents; they don't care about schools at all. Some of the land that was initially designated for business centers has been sold to builders, who are now...

LOL..Orange balloon stays for ever.I think GP and PS become a jungle of homes. City should putting more homes here.

I have received similar feedback from a friend in Foothill Ranch regarding the over-crowding at the Foothill Ranch Town Center. They purchased a home very close to the Town Center—approximately 0.4 miles away—in 2017. They mentioned that the queues at retail shop's billing counters have become...

Yes...

I saw the builder broacher and the mello roos range is from $9,600 to $11,500

Its around $1000

@Danimal thank you for suggestion in trying to help us. Yes, we are looking around Aliso Viejo too.

@ThirtySomethingWEquity Yes, I also searched in Foothill Ranch, but I was not that impressed with the homes currently on the market. Thank you for your suggestions. I really liked the Meadows community and TB Builders' construction. Their work is of high quality and thoughtfully designed...

I'm not sure why Portola Springs has allocated some land to shopping centers for basic needs. I cook every day for my kids, and as a woman, I often need to visit nearby necessity stores, including grocery and pharmacy stores, and dry cleaners. It would have been nice if they had a shopping...

@CalBears96 Thank you for your quick reply. Luna Park community residents have to pay $1,000 for Mello-Roos. I can see this on the seller's brochure, and the salespersons said the same. The reason we chose Great Park is because it is close to I-5 and I-405, hospitals, and shopping centers...
