    "As a resident for over 5 years, I think Lake Forest is highly underrated. There are few places in OC where you can find affordable single-family houses with big lot. Besides, it has good schools, low crime, friendly neighborhoods and a lot of trees! I can't believe people haven't found out they could get better houses for the money here than nearby expensive cities."
