The Height of Family Living Irvine and Tustin: Lush landscaping and award-winning schools.
Irvine and Tustin hold longstanding reputations for being two of the most family-friendly cities in Orange County. Featuring award-winning schools, extremely low crime rates, and a suburban location that is still driving distance to the ocean, Irvine and Tustin give their residents the best of both worlds.
Irvine: A master-planned community with coveted amenities.
The Irvine Company developed the city of Irvine to be a model of enjoyable and appealing living. It’s no wonder that Irvine is consistently rated as one of the safest cities in the nation and was once named by CNN the fourth best place to live in the United States. Irvine is famously known for its exceptional schools, including Northwood High School and the University of California, Irvine (UCI).
Nature-lovers will love Irvine’s Open Space Preserve, which boasts the beautiful Bommer Canyon as well as biking and hiking trails (Jeffrey Open Space Trail is our pick), equestrian programs, and wildlife sanctuaries. At Great Park, visitors enjoy an antique carousel and ride up a giant, anchored helium balloon for aerial views of the city. For a night out, locals head to the Spectrum, which is home to a treasure trove of restaurants and entertainment, including the Improv comedy club and a giant Ferris wheel.
Encompassing a rich palette of architectural styles, properties for sale in Irvine can be found in neighborhoods surrounding UCI, such as Turtle Rock and University Park, newer developments like Orchard Hills, or more established neighborhoods like Quail Hill, Shady Canyon®, and Woodbridge, which offer coveted amenities like community pools, clubhouses, and gated access.
Tustin: Easy living near shopping and entertainment.
Showcasing tree-lined streets, numerous trails, and a quaint Old Town, Tustin is especially well suited for families. Here, calm living is juxtaposed with bustling city action at The District and The Market Place, two of Orange County’s premier destinations for best-in-class shopping and dining.
For those with an active lifestyle, Victory Park—a five-acre recreation area that offers playgrounds, picnic areas, cabanas, barbeque facilities, and more—and Peters Canyon will become fast favorites. Gearheads also delight in Tustin’s Marconi Automotive Museum. North Tustin is home to sprawling estates, while the city proper is inclusive of a myriad of single-family homes.
