Irvine has something that most other cities don't have and that is the Irvine Co. They have a vested interest in the city and will benefit by keeping it clean as long as they are landlords. And they still have land that can bring in new taxes and alot per property. The school district closes...

$1000 per month HOA? What is included in that?

Do you have any demographic data to go with the numbers, like race, age, income level?
