Your reasoning are your's but they no way justify your video title. Seems like clickbait to me. I grew up in Irvine and it is perfect. CLEAN, SAFE, CONVENIENT, BEST SCHOOLS, BEST PARKS/LAKES, GREAT NEIGHBORS. I don't appreciate your title when its obviously just for views. It's nothing but misleading.

I was just biking down one of the trails today (Im a new resident to SoCal) and stopped in Irvine for lunch. Didn't know much of anything about it but damn, it was weirdly so nice and pleasant and wondered why. Good to know it is that amazing to the locals.
Exactly Infact more than half the adult wanting peace n chill lifestyle...
No nightlife
Thanks for the video! Exactly what I was looking for
Glad to hear that, you’re very welcome! Thanks for watching Rodrigo. Reach out with any lingering questions you may have!
Irvine has quickly become my top pick for a place to call home. I made the move from Austin, Texas, and have been blown away by how pristine everything is here. The locals are just as warm and welcoming as those in Texas, and there's never a shortage of tasty dining options or fun activities to enjoy. Plus, the cost of living is just as reasonable as it was in Austin.
Thank you for sharing your experience! It’s great to hear the comparison with another popular relocation city! When did you make your move from Austin?
Grew up in Orange County, right on the tri border, Fountain Valley, Costa Mesa, Santa Ana, and also lived in Anaheim. back in the 70's-90's great place to grow up and live. If I was to move back, Fountain Valley, Orange, & Anaheim!!!
Great input. Thank you for tuning in!
Excellent video and channel, congrats!
Thank you Ivan!
Thanks for this video!!!
You're very welcome! Do you live here in Irvine?

Avalon: Avoid!!!
With a family, Irvine is close to perfect if you are able to handle the cost of living. The safe parks, proximity to major destinations, and weather is just heaven. :)
Absolutely, I totally agree with you! Are you a resident here in Irvine?
How safe is Irvine particularly at night?
Hi Abraham. Irvine is extremely safe no matter the time of day or night! It’s the safest city of its size in the entire country. You will feel very safe even on a midnight walk.
I am from Brazil and I will be a PhD visiting student for 6 months at UCI. Do you recomend a ny cheap place near UCI where I can rent a dorm? I believe that I will have to pay in advance 1 month rent from Brazil before I get there, right?
Hi Ivan, thank you for reaching out! Go ahead and send me an email at garrett@kasere.com and I’ll be happy to give my best recommendations once I know a little more about your specific situation.
UCI also has housing programs for their staff/faculty. They are substantially cheaper than anything I've ever seen on the market. You should ask about housing programs offered through UCI :)
@@AliGee_ Great advise! Do you work or study at UCI?
@@livinginoc I'm an almuni, but my partner works there.
@@AliGee_ Awesome, thank you for tuning in and sharing!
Good morning. I have look at good home .
Jah2pack artist on RUclips just trying to get more visibility posting here honestly thou lake forest resident for about 20 years Irvine is irvine
Cost of housing+Mello-roos yearly + property taxes+ home insurance . certainly public schools are good/ safest city/ wish more of public transportation
Are you a resident here in Irvine?
We are not welcome poor people. Period.
Nah fam Irvine is definitely much more clean and safe…. I live in the IE at least compared to most of OC especially Irvine there is no comparison to how safe and clean it is
Good afternoon 😊
Hello!
Just moved here and what a great upgrade from Long Beach. Feels safe and close to work so win win. 🙌🏼
Congrats on your move and welcome to the OC!
Good video
Thanks for tuning in! Do you live here in Irvine?
@@livinginoc I live in Seattle but I'm considering moving to Irvine. Currently looking at apartments.
@@JonnyBeoulve Congrats! If you'd like to discuss the move or have any questions send me and email, I'd be happy to assist.

Hey what are appartment rents for students at occ and UC Irvine??
That depends! Both schools do offer specific student housing options. Send me an email and Id be happy to advise you on your specific situation!
@@livinginoc sure bro thx
Wife works for a large apartments company, and for nicer areas like Irvine, Huntington Beach (PCH area), you are looking at around $2500 to $3000 for a 1 bedroom
@@1974dormouse What 2500 to 3000? Isn't it too much for one bedroom
Wife and I want to stay in OC, but we want to live in a safe (doesn’t have to be Irvine safe, but safer than Santa Ana) and low cost homes. Back in the 90’s the city of Orange use to be this, but not sure anymore.
Reach out to me! I'd love to understand a little more about your specific situation to see how best I can advise you.

Fountain Valley is a good option, Costa Mesa.
Have a job offer to move there… but hesitant to leave Miami and Florida, the best city in America. :(
I wouldn’t trade Orange County for anything but that’s just me! Depends on your specific situation but if you have any questions about Irvine, feel free to reach out to me direct!
@@livinginoc thank you, my brother. I think for me it’s the lack of walkability, amenities and nightlife. Those crazy taxes don’t help either! I can see how it’s a great place to live for a young family though! I will definitely reach out
@@greenlion6544 looking forward to hearing from you! 714 362 1494
It’s huge. Everything is spread out. Neighborhoods are silos. The city layout discourages walking from one neighborhood to the next. A car is a must to move around within the city.
The city is built to discourage civic and social assembly. It’s a city where one rests, but not a city where one can also experience and feel alive.
I would describe it as a top-down, command-and-control city layout. There is an evident central-planning presence which makes it easy to navigate many and large vehicles around town. I would describe it as a dormant military base, the way the city has been planned and laid out. There’s a sense that it can be mobilized for passage, if needed.
It’s good for a season if you’re young, or to await your last days if you’re elderly. It’s hardly a place to feel alive.
Thank you for tuning in and commenting your thoughts Will! Are you currently an Irvine resident or have you been in the past?
I am currently. In all fairness, and to provide some background on what experiences influence my impression, I moved into the Spectrum area a couple months ago. I moved here from San Diego, and before that I lived in San Francisco. Those are bigger cities of course, and the vibe of the neighborhoods in those cities is also more eclectic to me, and those cities don’t follow Master Plans. So I am still working on getting to know the city, the area, and I’m continuing to develop my opinion of Irvine.
this is so well said, I completely agree
maybe show pictures?
Certainly, what would you like to see more of? Thank you for tuning in!
Please lads. Riverside is more cheap. Swear to God. Go to Riverside
Riverside is certainly more affordable, and there are good reasons for that! It all depends what is going to be most important to you. Thanks for watching!
I live in riverside and its boring
@@slimfit_7964 stay there as long as you can
I'm living in SoCal for good proximity to the coasts, screw the inland empire
Money was not an issue for us to move to Irvine... Sure the area was super safe and super clean...It was the pretense and unfriendliness there that propelled us as a family to move out of the area...We're an Asian family btw.... Fortunately, we moved away to Spain...We were absolutely astounded by the open lovable friendly communities and cultures... Matter of fact, Europe, especially many parts of Scandinavia, the kids aren't as pretentious or mean cliques like the ones in Irvine/South OC.. My kids just love the precociously friendly kids here in Europe ...We love it!
Thank you for tuning in and sharing your experience Nabi! How long did you live in Irvine for before making the move over seas?
Wow, I literally feel the same way & been to Spain twice & want to move there as well. Spain has places that look like California but the people are so beautiful and kind.
lol but so many Asians live there lmao. Mainly chinese and white pepper lolll literally all international students even in HS all ended up going to Irvine after they graduated lol so what is it other Asians being mean or sumn lmaooo
Nobody needs you here lmao do as you please nobody cares
yes I live both in Irvine and Europe...my kids did not like the schools here so they went to Europe....Europe is far better than Irvine
Nice. Why in Irvine every corner has newly built apartment complex. Where is Irvine expecting all these renters??? Out of space aliens
Demand drives development! Do you live in Irvine?
Irvine is going downhill now. All realtors should be concerned. Irvine City Council has been a Middle East conflict since November. Protesters are in City Council meetings, in the streets, and outside homes. Irvine is on a very bad trajectory.
