when you say "NOBODY" do you mean the students or the parents? there's probably a different mindset for students/kids that age. maybe not wanting to be labeled/associated with whatever group that's showing up there. and yeah, at the end we bought here too and paid the premium so if my daughter...

i can't imagine anyone is really pegging for a presidency to get at the eventual exorbitant speaking fees i do wonder at what level is it fair for the president to get compensated at though? you're generally set after-the-fact, but as mentioned the compensation doesn't really tie with the...

i'm hoping more details show up soon on the retail space sizes over at Great Park. if its going to be spaces for things such as haircut/salon, small coffee shops then i'll be pretty disappointed. but if there's at least 1-2 restaurants i'll be happy.

i think its a pretty sad state that the whole "toxin/toxic land" thing is such a large concern for ppl that they'll ask INTERNET STRANGERS vs doing their own due diligence (or maybe this is part of it) i mean if we reply "yeah its radioactive, don't buy" or "everything is peachy, no fumes...

I have no real stake in this, but just a correction on Broadcom before people are thinking they are bringing in thousands of jobs into Irvine. Since their merger with Avago (technically got bought out by Avago and Avago went with the name Broadcom Limited), they are actually laying off...

I remember writing in the community forum that neighbors with concerns can reach out to the board member we elected (just one, rest is five point assigned).. since he had his email on the community platform. next day? that email address is gone. lol... to be fair lots of complaints were kind...

FYI for those interested... I went to see this awhile back and the sales rep told me they're just going to toss in the loft in all plan 3s given its popularity (in lieu of the small tech space upstair). so this will add about 30-35k premium to all the plan 3 models.

at this price point you'll want to look at the lot you're choosing the home on and your lifestyle/needs. if you were able to walk through the production homes at summit, you'll get a better idea of what alpine looks like w/o the model flare we thought seriously about summit (and just get rid of...

wait wtf.

wait do members of this board swap homes every year? heh

yep its what the article says.

exactly. officials: "here are the test results. everything looks good." residents: "uhhhh we don't believe you. do another test." officials: "okay the updated test still looks good. here are the results. available publicly as required by law." residents: "we dont understand the reports.."...

yeah but she meant Asian as in East Asian. not Indians. heh. anyways your sample size isn't exactly fit too. if I have any takeaway from this thread, its that I'm going to try and steer my kid the right way, and at the end hope her merits will win her whatever opportunities she may have earned.

yeah the article didn't necessary present the situation in anymore of a negative light. I think in general people are just distrusting of local/state officials. plus even though there are myriad of publicly available report, i dont think most ppl have the will/time to educate themselves and get...

yeah seriously, if you're unsure about the health safety of the area and think there are risk-- plus all those negatives of Irvine, why not just move? some forum members do seem to do actively do that.

To add to it, Northwood Montessori was actually our first choice as it had lunch (vs. Le Port which had catering). We ended up going with LePort because we didn't want to wait  (and eventually missing out on the waitlist call from getting accepted because we were out of the country). I'm...

I thought law school has been a bad choice (unless top tier institution) in the past decade due to job demand (lack thereof) but yeah this really depends on if your major expense (mortgage) is paid off or not by the time you retire. and there's "dirt cheap" OC vs. "stupid expensive" OC, to...

Are you saying if they have accidents they wont help out.. or they wont help out at all?

I'm relatively new to TI but I often wonder how threads like these will play out in a discussion in real life. heh.

pretty big lot premium. went to see both terraces and summit recently because we were interested in them. took a look at most of the models that were under constructions (terraces was just not big enough but should look fairly luxurious regardless when finished). was a bit disappointed in the...
