Hi all, Household incomes average around $140,508 in Laguna Beach. It's a a small town city with about 22,777 people. Crime rate is something to consider -Laguna Beach sits at 165.1 per 100K. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. The city has invested a lot in new development.
Pros:
- Good job market
- Good schools
- Diverse community
- Lots of new development
Cons:
- Cold winters
- Rising rent prices
- High property taxes
- Lack of diversity
- Boring for young people
Has anyone dealt with this? People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. Property taxes are high but you get good services. The suburbs are where most families end up. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Property taxes are high but you get good services. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Night life is decent if you know the right spots.
