Hello Panda, Just to clarify.  That was not my quote.  It was from a link from bestplaces.com.

Which Woodbridge elementary school is good?  (i.e. for the most part, good teachers, good staff, good admin).

Fromhttp://www.wsjclassroomedition.com/teen/teencenter/05nov_whiteflight.htm "NEWS FROM THE WALL STREET JOURNAL: NOVEMBER 19, 2005 The New White Flight In Silicon Valley, two high schools with outstanding academic reputations are losing white students as Asian students move in. Why? By SUEIN...

Here's an opinion on Irvine.  I found this while looking at what neighborhood we should buy in (hence bestplaces.com...). http://www.bestplaces.net/backfence/viewcomment.aspx?id=683289AD-FA9E-4354-97B3-CC3929431928&city=Irvine_CA&p=50636770 "Irvine, Ca.- Don't belive the Propaganda /Irvine i...

A neighborhood elementary school is now 60%+ asian.  Some of the white parents have mentioned that it is getting a little "too Asian" at the school and in the neighborhood.  We had had a huge influx of Korean moms with their kids temporarily staying (usually 2 years) here in Irvine (I was told...

Just stopped by Casero to see what was up.  They have about 7 homes already build and ready (available).  These have upgrades so maybe the higher prices are because of the upgrades? Asked if there are any incentives and the sales lady said no.  (No appliance packages, no upgrade credits -- I...

Comparing the original prices of plan 3 ($650k), and the current price ($700k+ - per redfin for standing inventory), can't believe that prices are going up.  I thought the economy was bad and housing price was supposed to go down...

I am also curious on the toll road noise.  Also, any pollution problems?

I was wondering the same thing...

I am going to guess WB.

I've heard from parents who live in the old Northwood area that their neighborhood would eventually be zoned for Irvine High once the developments around Northwood High are done (I'm assuming that they heard from their elementary school?)  Anyways, since the NII is right next to the old NW area...

Mmmmm... :)

Sorry to hear what happened.  I don't like to hear when teachers/directors appear uncaring of little ones... I know of one parent who sends her son to Annaeliese in Laguna.  Her son is particularly short for his age and was excluded and made fun of at his school in Oak Creek.  She moved him to...

Just got an alert through Life Lock via e-mail re: a new registered sex offender in Irvine.  Couldn't log in to my a/c so went ahead and checked out the Megan's Law site and found out that there at least 15 registered offenders in Irvine...scary...

Anyone here read Korean?  I wanted to know what the Summer Packages A, B and C listed on the following Korean real estate ad saids for Casero: http://epaper.koreatimes.com/pdffile/la/20110811/20110811s007.pdf

If you live in an IAC (TIC) apt community, then you got an e-mail inviting you to a "special" preview showing of Santa Maria prior to the grand opening day.

Where are they going to put 20,000+ affordable housing units in Irvine?  I know they have 2-3 affordable housing apts in WB and they may make some in CV and GP.  But that 's a lot of housing.  Are most going in the Great Park?

Yes, thanks! I'd like to know what effects there may be if any, when they dig up the soil at the Great Park (for housing or for the park itself) and if any of that soil is contaminated with TCE or radioactive stuff, or whatever toxic material there may be, how would all that debris rising up...

As much as I want to laugh at the above, seeing what they ended up doing with LA makes me think that this is no joke.
