Lake Forest, California Relocation Guide

Although Lake Forest is a new city, having incorporated on
December 20, 1991, the Lake Forest area has a long history. Starting out as an agricultural area like most of Orange County region, Lake Forest began to grow rapidly following World War II. Residential, commercial and industrial development began to replace the acres of citrus and other agricultural products. A significant reason for the change was the growing importance of the El Toro Marine Base. The growth of the base increased the need for new homes and support services. Steadily, the Lake Forest area was built into the City we have today.

Lake Forest has been carefully master-planned to help ensure that it will always be an ideal place to live and conducive to business growth. Consequently, the amenities for encouraging residential and business growth are highly valued and carefully nurtured by those groups and individuals whose role is to help the City grow.

Seeded in history, nestled within rolling hills, lakes and stands of eucalyptus, and freeway close, Lake Forest is a community that is responsive to business and aggressive in its desire for attracting and retaining an excellent business community.
