Seems rankings of Irvine CA are okay, but top 30 isn’t exactly that interesting a place in CA, https://www.niche.com/places-to-live/search/best-places-to-live/s/california/. Median home value is 1.1M+ for Irvine in CA, compared to Solana Beach (ranked at 57 overall in CA) which has a median home value of 1.6M+. The fuss over Irvine being a good place to live seems arbitrary and cultural, and not based on any merit per my estimation. OC seems like a pretty generic and bland beach place to live relative to San Diego etc.
It has relatively cheap real estate for all the trouble they seem to be going through to maintain “standards”. For example this house in any given Blue state would be 1.5M+ https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/604-S-Durango-Cir_Irving_TX_75062_M81329-18653?from=srp-list-card
Edit bc I looked at the wrong place 🤪

You’ve misspelled.
It’s “Irvine” and I’m assuming Irvine, CA.
You searched “Irving”
I think the rest of the thread mentions TX
Edit I am wrong!
