Was hoping to get some opinions and breakdowns of the LA vs OC suburbs.

OC suburbs- white, conservative, expensive.  LA burbs- diverse, liberal, expensive.  Lots to do in either. LAfood scene rivals anywhere in the world if you ask me.  Non Covid traffic is awful everywhere.

North, south, east, or west suburbs?

 

Basically, all of OC is a suburb. There really is no metro area there.

[Prepuce of Doom 21112]

In LA, the shortest errand will still take you an hour because everything is always crowded. 

No idea how it is in OC, but I don't miss the constant hassle.

Someone I use to work with lived in a suburb where all the strippers frolicked. I think it started with a C. It has been 25 years, but some things kind of stick in the memory.

He may not be the biggest but he can sure last the longest

Pretty conservative.  Of course, in California, it's all relative.

I'm thinking it was Corona. Was it Gandolf or the People's Elbow who worked for GGW? He should know where all the porn stars at.

[Gil Bang 26068]

Corona sounds about right.  Just the right combo of affordable and trashy.

I have a customer in Corona.  Corona sucks and is hot AF in the summer.

[Gil Bang 26068]

and smoggy too.  

[ScottS 1076]

Isn't Chatsworth where all the porn is shot?

[Gil Bang 26068]

not really.  Used to be all over the "Valley".   Woodland Hills, Studio City, Van Nuys, Pacoima.  Pretty much anywhere North and West of North Hollywood.

Why do it in a pricey state?  Just use South Austin's mom's living room like we all do.

 

 

 

 

Looking at:

 

Rancho Mission Viejo

Mission Viejo

Aliso Viejo

Rancho Santa Margarita

Irvine

Stanton

 

 

Eh whatever, or we'll just stay here in the PNW

[Upgrayedd 5822]

Lulz.  How’d you lump Stanton in there?

[Gil Bang 26068]

yeah, one of those is not like the other. 

 

And regarding Irvine: are you Chinese? 

 

Anyway, OP,  I happen to work for the best brokerage in SoCal, and can hook you up with a great agent that works that end of OC exclusively.   I wouldn't be comfortable giving any advice about those areas.  My wheelhouse starts at Dana Point and goes south from there.
