A relative newcomer to Orange County, Irvine was incorporated in 1971 and breathed new life into the area. Consistently rated by many as one of the top ten cities in America, Irvine is a wonderful community in which to live and work. This perfectly planned city offers wide streets, designated bike paths, and numerous neighborhood "villages" each with their own distinct style. A note, however: many of these village, while offering member only parks and pools, also have monthly dues which should be kept in mind when planning your budget.
