    More households spend half of pay on housing

    Presidents in Latin America have been beheaded and dragged through the streets for things like this.

    More households spend half of pay on housing

    I'm not sure how anyone could even qualify for a 50% or more back end payment. That's worse than ramen and water every night, that's cardboard and rainwater.

    Just noticed San Marino Plan 3X, when did this come out?

    TIC should just demolish all these tuscan stucco crap boxes and build high density pagoda towers.

    Just noticed San Marino Plan 3X, when did this come out?

    It's just funny, and sort of embarrassing at the same time. I'm waiting for the Kung Fu Studio upgrade for the California Room, and the optional happy ending massage parlor room (takes the place of the downstairs bedroom). The livestock shed should be an upcoming upgrade as well.

    Just noticed San Marino Plan 3X, when did this come out?

    They actually have an area for a "Wok Burner"? TIC you clever marketer, you.

    Will Irvine change from bedroom community to metropolitan by 2020?

    Well by that time, Irvine will be desolate, and abandoned. The only thing dotting the landscape will be slightly black smoke spires from tire fires started by homeless vagrants.

    Will Irvine change from bedroom community to metropolitan by 2020?

    Pretty much. Berkeley and UCLA actually have interesting research. UCI accepts 25% to 40% of the qualified people who apply any given year. Not exactly a great or super selective school.

    Will Irvine change from bedroom community to metropolitan by 2020?

    I bought in Irvine when they were selling 5 bedroom homes for the price of 2 bedroom condos today, so I'm not worried about a payoff. My kids are relatively young as well, and we just moved to CDM (although contractor work is keeping us out as of right now). This is more of a future fantasy...

    Will Irvine change from bedroom community to metropolitan by 2020?

    That's a valid point. Irvine lacks a true "downtown" that would form the core of a metropolitan city. The closest candidate I can think of is Jamboree from the 405 all the way to Barranca. It's a stretch I know.

    Will Irvine change from bedroom community to metropolitan by 2020?

    Yes, I'm not sure if it's good or bad myself based on my own value system. On one hand, I think it would be great for the local economy if Irvine were to become a business and financial center for Orange County (it pretty much is already though not a municipal center). On the other hand, the...

    Will Irvine change from bedroom community to metropolitan by 2020?

    TIC seems intent on building lots of high density living areas. Lots of IAC units coming in the next 10 years, and lots of attached product in places like Woodbury. The Irvine I lived in the past 15+ years was for the most part a sleepy bedroom community feeding into L.A proper and even San...

    Lambert Ranch in Irvine

    Well, Larry Webb isn't a blood sucking demon who will live until he's 2,000 years old unlike Donald Bren. Bren needs the extra MR money to fund the purchase of young virgin women from the country pronvinces of China and Korea which he needs to consume every full moon to stay alive. Mello roos is...

    Irvine Castle - Open House Today

    Why would you say that? I've seen a lot of asians buying pieces of crap in Irvine. Look at Woodbury and Woodbury East, who do you think bought all those pieces of crap?

    Laguna Altura homes

    This is what I call a solution. If they did mock Mongolian invasions lead by an actor playing Genghis Khan, launching rocks, and arrows against the wall, that would be even better. Best solution suggested thus far for adding value to Laguna Altura.

    626 destroys 949 when it comes to asian food. Also, "No ones acting phony, except on our taxes, it's cash only!" Shout out to A&J's, and Q-Noodle House baby!

    Laguna Altura homes

    Places like Laguna Altura, Woodbury, PS, and all the other high density stucco box developments are making Irvine ridiculous to live in. It honestly feels like West L.A on a Satuday night when you want to just drop by 99 Ranch, or Diamond Jamboree Plaza. Imagine what happens when 25,000...

    You know a neighborhood sucks when the best thing you can say is "at least I'm not next to a landfill."

    Condo above garages - is it loud?

    No offense, but that is a very aggressive statement. Fighting is looked down upon by Irvine citizens, but I understand that settling issues with fisticuffs might be standard etiquette in rough 'hoods like Wrong Beach. In Irvine we settle our disagreements by playing Ultimate Frisbee at Bill...
