    IHB needs a resident bull on board

    <p><em>Plenty of landscapers and young mothers out with kids, people walking dogs, etc.</em></p> <p>Do you live in the same Irvine I do? I see landscapers, and nannys and professional dog walkers during the day. I also see some grandparents with kids that usually have very limited english...

    Rent Multiplier = 160?? Maybe a little higher.

    It's my understanding that's gross income. I've always wondered the same thing, Peter. I think those calculations don't take into effect all the other things that go along with the "lifestyle" of living in Irvine. You know things like $500+ car payments, gym memberships, and god forbid if you...

    Lake Forest Disucssion Thread

    <p>I lived in Lake Forest on Lake Forest between Trabuco and Portola from 1999 to 2002. I rented a 2 bedroom/2 bath in a decent complex. The commute to the 5 took about 10-15 minutes back then. Not sure if it's better or worse now. I will tell you that I had my car broken into twice, neither...

    Villages of Columbus - Columbus Grove - Savannah

    <p>Hi Jbatz,</p> <p>Congrats on your purchase! I agree with you on the one bedroom layout. I absolutely fell in love with it, and thought it was one of the neatest floor plans I'd seen in a while. The 2 bedroom was probably a smart long term purchase though. Is your garage one of the tandem...

    Recommendations of a good sports ortho doc?

    <p>My boss' husband is a Firefighter/EMT and former football player. He blew out his knee a few years ago playing sports and asked around for a good ortho surgeon paired w/ good mechanics rehabilitation, as he wanted to continue as a firefighter. He was told by multiple medical professionals to...

    Good restaurants in the General Irvine Area

    <p>We were talking about Animal Style this week at work and someone mentioned that part of the Animal Style "goodness" is a grill scrape. So not only do you get the extra cheese, thousand island dressing and mustard , you also get all the fat left on the grill. No one was certain if that was...

    Any Modernist housing in Irvine?

    <p>If you are talking about SFRs, I can't think of any examples in Irvine. The only "modern" housing I've seen is in the new more "urban" area they are building near the airport. I still personally wouldn't consider this "modernist contemporary" housing though. If you are open to flats, lofts...

    San Clemente - what's the low down?

    I spend just about every other Friday and some Thursdays down in San Clemente. As a solo female I have never felt unsafe there. I have walked to the bank and back to my vehicle (which is a soft top Jeep), even at later hours. I've never had any issue. I find the locals to be fairly nice people...

    Good restaurants in the General Irvine Area

    If you like Jerry's you should try Arnies Manhattan Deli, 1660 Dove St Newport Beach, CA 92660 (949) 252-8646. Less trendy, better food, IMHO. Great pickles (a must for me), homemade rye bread that melts in your mouth, properly rare roast beef and great pastrami. Their matzah ball...
