Cornelius L. Jackson Imagine a sunny community, with everything you need, the best neighborhoods and the funniest people in Southern California- Irvine, that is what you get! Irvine is a city located in the sunny orange county. It is one of the wealthiest and safest cities in America. With a fairly stable economy sustained by technology, highereducation institutions and a host of semiconductor companies, certainly, Irvine is the best place to settle and raise a family. There are so many reasons to move in Irvine including
a steady job market, warm weather, beautiful scenery, safety and many others. Irvine is a few miles away from the flashy coastal town of Newport Beach and a cruise around the UC Irvine Campus. But allow me to introduce Irvine, California.
