    What do your neighbors do for a living?

    I have a view that once you make a certain amount of money...you shouldn't have to "stress" about money anymore...which means after some point of wealth (that amount differs for everyone), I don't want to have the same stresses as someone who makes a combined $75K per year and literally has to...

    What do your neighbors do for a living?

    It is why I won't be surprised when the state or county will have to step in and do something drastic. It is not a sustainable path to having a good economy / workforce within the area. Top talent will eventually leave. It is not right when you can't get high quality entry level people to stay...

    Save the Memorial Park! Vote No on Measure B ballot June 5th

    Logic I can't argue against. Probably the soundest logic in the whole forum. When confused...vote against Agran.

    More Money Has Bought Dumber Students For Decades

    Pure curiosity, and you don't need to share, how did you possibly earn $200K working through college?  What job were you working that paid that much, net of tuition/housing costs. I'm presuming you had no housing costs (and were living at home)?

    Child Safety Thread - Post Your Idea/Experience Here

    I grew up riding on sidewalks and when my kids start to learn to ride their bikes (without training wheels), they will also ride on sidewalks. I don't ride on streets unless I have on option (i.e, sidewalks are closed) for the very reasons you mention.  Unrelated, any good methods to teaching...

    I actually just came across this thread and read the first two posts (befor the 3rd one) and was about to say great tips. Very much appreciate them.

    218 homes to be built this summer on the old Tustin Marine base

    From a commuting perspective, TL has the best location though. If it weren't for the base and any environmental concerns, I'd say its pure location would be pretty prime (outside of places with more hilly terrain..i.e., turtle rock / shady / OH).

    Newer Irvine listings with crazy WTF asking prices from equity sellers

    I actually love what they did for a kids room. Give kids plenty of space to be able to put stuff out on the carpet and play and have room to play/crawl.

    Irvine residents worried about potential sale of Rancho San Joaquin Golf Course

    Can they build on the golf course? I thought it was a former dump?

    Costco stores in Tustin, Pacoima test computerized food-court ordering kiosks

    Costco makes total sense. To be honest, so would inn and out (by and large). In both cases, you have very few items / combinations and that makes it easy for a computer to work.  For a Taco Bell...It will take me way more to get to my options on a computer vs. just ordering.  Man it was...

    Baker Ranch in Lake Forest / Foothill Ranch

    If you want a 3 bedroom townhome for under $750K, you have options in West Irvine (Sheridan Square Community). USCTrojan has had a couple in the past 6 months that he sold in that neibhorhood.  Low mella roos and reasonable HOA (for townhome). Northpark has similar units and even Woodbury I...

    What is at the end of Jeffrey at Portola Pkwy

    Not sure if it is still there, but there used to be a shooting range up there and I thought like a camp/temporary housing for those who work the fields in the area (or something like that).  This goes years back and some of that might be an urban myth.

    Cadence Park - Great Park

    \Thanks...so smallest home in this neighborhood is 2200 square feet and everything is detached (either SFR or detached condo).

    Cadence Park - Great Park

    I realize it is probably on this site somewhere, but what is the breakdown of SFR's vs. Townhomes in Cadence park. Is the land on one of the "cleaner" parts of the base or are there concerns?

    Retail Openings and Closures

    Kind of weird but I was getting something from Lowe's yesterday and the Carters in Irvine is completely boarded up and closed (no sign or anything).  Everything empty. Usually they'd do some going out of business sale or have a relocation sign up. Thought it was a little odd (and my wife was...

    Cadence Park - Great Park

    I didn't realize Cadence park was going to have some pretty good size single family residences. For some reason I was thinking it was going to be like Parasol park and all 3 story thingies.

    Columbus Grove, another cursed community in Irvine?

    This house is overpriced. It backs Harvard and the power lines.  I would be surprised if this didn't sit for a while until they eventually took a lower offer.  And even if it sells at a discount, all of this is relative to when you bought it. If you paid 15% less but saw similar appreciation (as...

    Elderberry at PS5

    Seems like a lot of recent posters on here have mentioned buying here. What is the current prices (curious how the prices have moved since they opened).

    5 restaurant closures in Orange County include Mimi?s Cafe and 2 Pick up Stix

    They already have a sign up for a new coffee place in the old coffee bean location. Something like red dot coffee (or something like that).  Edit: Blackdot...I suppose if I read the article it would help.
