Sorry not the thread jack, but there may be a job opportunity for me in Laguna Nigel, CA. Anyone have suggestions on where to move near that area where it isn't too expensive and the commute isn't too bad?
I saw some apartments in Laguna Nigel, but they were kind of pricey. Trying to find areas where it's good for families and not too long/far of a commute.
Laguna Nigel is a good family place. Very safe neighborhoods, lots of parks, and above average schools.
I have cousins that live in the area off of Alicia & Marguerite right past Lake Mission Viejo.
You should be able to find a 2 bedroom for $1800 to 2000 range. Stay in this area if you can fit it in your budget. Not worth going to other shady bad neighborhoods up the 5 Fwy.
Traffic though is always terrible at rush hour and even on the week ends. The traffic starts bunching up right there around the Alicia, Oso Pkwy, and El Torro exits on the 5 Fwy as the free way splits where the 5 Fwy & 405 Fwy are.
Oh and Laguna Niguel to Irvine is usually a 20 minute drive but usually will turn into a hour or longer ride due to traffic.
