Walnut is a commuter-friendly Irvine suburb
Many factors go into buying a home: how much your mortgage will be, how much square footage you want, what amenities you need and, of course, location, location, location. For home buyers who work in Los Angeles but want to live in Orange County, the Walnut neighborhood in northeast Irvine might be the place to find a satisfying compromise. "You can get a lot more house here than you can in LA. And if you work in downtown LA or Pasadena, the commute to and from here wouldn't be too bad," says Matt Tilley, Realtor with First Team Realty and "The British Bloke" on his real estate YouTube Channel.
