One of the best kept “secrets” in Orange County is Laguna Hills.

Besides being close to Orange County’s best attractions like Disneyland (25 minutes) or some of California’s best beaches, Laguna Hills currently has some of the most affordable home prices in Orange County. This doesn't come at the expense of safety, inconvenient location, subpar schools, or other factors you might consider to be a part of a low cost community either. The median home price in Laguna Hills is $641,600 and home values here are predicted to increase by at least another 5 percent or more this year as more people from other Southern California cities decide to relocate here to enjoy a different pace of life. Laguna Hills has some great amenities that many people are beginning to notice.
